I wound up taking a two-hour nap in the early morning hours but was awake before the sun rose. First, I went to the stern of the ship but then decided to view the event from the sixth deck just below the bridge. After it came over the horizon and went behind some clouds, being kind of sleepy, I went and jumped into the pool of salt water and now I feel awaken and refreshed. It is a new day, a new year, a new beginning. It seems that the first day of this new year will be a beautiful one whether it is sunny, rainy, our even if we get caught in the typhoon. Today will be a day of rest; no yoga, no sauna, no walking the decks, and no climbing the stairs. Today, I will continue to put down my ideas on truths that I have developed into my book of life.
