Follow Your Bliss

If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Wherever you are -- if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time.

Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth with Bill Moyers, edited by Betty Sue Flowers. Doubleday and Co, 1988, p. 120.

Dad & Marti are anchored in the mouth of the Potomac River near St. Marys City, MD. There is a raging thunderstorm. They are celebrating 29 years of being together--today! Back on July 1, 1980 they met at the Caucus Club in Detroit.

The name of their boat is Bliss--a 49 foot Jeanneau deck salon. Gorgeous boat. Needs a better stereo. In the photo above, you can see my Dad, Marty, and Kathy near the stern. Owen is in the middle with a very visible life vest on, and you can just see my head poking out from down below--I was checking on Julia, who is below deck coloring.
