"To live means not to waste time waiting for tomorrow.” I don’t know where I have read it but I agree. How about you?
We have to live every day as if it was our last… just reminding you, for I am sure everyone knows it, but do you all remember that?
… and what if you had only a week… what would you do?
… what if you could imagine your life in 5 years time, and you could sneak in and see this very day 5 years from now… What are you doing, where are you?
… I hope you are working now to be there in the future, to do what you want to do… and if not, Heloooooo! Get down to it!!!

Here, on Tanasza, it’s like in a sailor’s chant (now, how did it go?). If a sunset is red, the weather will go bad. And that’s what happened – I woke up in total greyness, it rained a little (which was nice, for it washed salt off Tanasza).
And so I sail. Christmas Island lies two days north west from here. Why don’t I stop there? Well, I simply can’t stop in every place I pass. I would have to sail my entire life for that… There are people, items and places I want to get back to, I have a lot of important stuff to deal with in order to be where I want to be in 5 year’s time... and so I am going back, a bit around – around the world, but I am going back 
I wonder if it’s true that returns are harder that goodbyes?
