A couple of months ago, I reported about 16-year-old Jessica Watson, the ambitious Australian who set off to become the youngest person to sail around the world — solo and unassisted. According to her blog, she is doing well:
“I can honestly say that I’ve not once felt lonely out here. Homesick sure and I’ve missed everyone since the moment I sailed outof Sydney, but not lonely. Lonely is the word for a Friday night with nowhere to go, sitting at home feeling sorry for yourself. The difference is that I choose to be out here. For some crazy reason I chose to be on a little boat in the middle of the ocean….How can I feel lonely with people all over the world thinking of me, talking about me, some probably still hotly debating whether or not I should be out here. And with my family and friends waiting for me back home. Lonely no, that’s not the word. Actually. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!”
You GO GIRL!!
