An opportunty and an adventure

Your boat is also trailerable, you can go where you want, when you want. That is an opportunity many, including myself, would like to have. The situation leading up to the opportunity is unfortunate for sure, without dragging out all the old clichés about dealing with such things, I would like to encourage you to make the best of it, not let it drag you down. I know, easy words for me to say 2,000 miles away in the ice and snow, but having been dealt a really lousy hand several years ago I figured I had two choices. One was to go down the dark path, dwell on the situation, maybe do something rash and be done with it all. The other was to try my best to get through it. I will admit that it was an argument that went on in my head for quite a while. I questioned my decisions, self worth and future. Fortunately for me I had some friends that stepped in and helped me get through the really tough part. I ended up being much better off in the long run and it helped me appreciate everything that came my way since then.
