To make your dreams – ASK!
To make your dreams – Ask!
"Many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then improbable, and then when you summon the will, they soon become inevitable. " Christopher Reeve
Now is a good time to pursue their dreams. Your life is moving forward, which is aging and the reality is that each of us a only chance to live our life we want. Every day we have a choice. Let us live the life you want or go to solve? Are we going to ask for help to make our dreams and we will continue our dreams locked inside? Life is too short to resolve, too short to give up our dreams and too short not to seek help achieve our dreams.
I do not want to wait until I was 80 to live Maine. I wanted to enjoy it now because who knows if I'll be there 80. I decided a year and a half ago, to go after my dream. And now I'm here. But coming here was that part of my dream. The other sleep I had since I was little was to be a lobsterwoman. I dreamed of being on a boat pulling lobster traps, the smell of the ocean and get dirty.
A year Agao walking the dog, enjoying the beauty of our island and the thought of my life here in Maine. As I approached the dock of SIDS seen the traps a lobsterman unloading his boat. I looked for a while, then decided I needed to speak with this man. I headed for the end of the dock and said: "Good day". He replied: "Hello" I did not pay much attention to me because it was busy doing his thing ..
Segui "Come? Day" He said, "No, I will make some traps and then leaving, he said," Cool I always wanted -. be a lobsterwoman. It has been my dream forever, "he said," Yes -. They all say the same thing. Not like it, certainly not glamorous, and most women can not last a day. You'll dirty and smelly, "I said," Ah, yes. I think I love you and I do not know until you try. I really wanted this since I was a child. Then he said: "You have your boots?" I said: "Yes, I'm going to take? "He said," Are you sure you want to come? It is not nice and if you're not back later today he said, "Great -. Can you give me ten minutes to go home and change. Put the dog in the kennel" He said, "Of course, back to the dock and pick it up. – Wait until the end "
I ran to the house completely out of breath. I was so excited. I could not believe he was going out on a fishing boat. I went home, changed and called my husband. I told him that I was on a ship with a type Lobster, I did not even ask his name, and I'd be home at 3:00 p.m. He thought he was crazy. I told him it would be good and if I go home at 15 hours to call the Coast Guard. He knew better than to tell me not to go. Although I said I was a little nervous about all this.
I ran the sea fisherman and lobster is gone. I do not see your boat and I assumed he had changed his mind. But I expected. I would not give up so easily. And of course, ten minutes after his boat enough he turned the corner and pulled into the dock. It greeted me abruptly and went to work. Immediately began to wear the harness of the boat and on the road. Then I remembered to ask him his name. His name was George – George lobster fisherman, the type that help my sleep come true.
After the pitfalls of transport to the pier, George took me on the boat and told me that I would be his strernman for the day. He said: "I'll show you need to do a couple of times and then you're on your own. "Then he lifted a five-gallon bucket and said:" This is the bathroom, if you need it "-. Oh crap I forgot that I might have to use the bathroom. I decided that I needed to be maintained and not drinking liquids. Was the lobster, I needed the toilet.
When I got on the boat, gave me an orange apron, a pair of gloves and told me what to expect. I smiled up ears. I could not believe it. The boat smelled of dead fish. I breathed deeply – it smells amazing. It was the smell of dreams.
When traveling to the first set of buoys, George gave me a little lesson. He said: "The job of a sternman is to complain, you must file a complaint and being. crazy all day because you're paid by how many catches of lobsters. I did not know but to be a sternman decided that it would be so hard and angry as he was, and complain loudly. It was my job.
We stopped in the first round of lobster traps and there was none. George yells, "I complain. You to be angry with me, Captain, not to catch lobsters. "Then I screamed. When we approach the second set of buoys, George told me I could not have my own this time. I watched carefully the last time and it was safe to do so. By pulling the traps that were once again without the locusts. I opened each cage, dumped on the old bait and reload the bag bait fresh bait. Although fresh is not the word I would use for bait. The bait used to fill bags of bait fish is salty and dead for several days.
I worked hard and fast. He told me to go faster and more urgent. I worked hard, shouting loudly and trying not to put my foot caught in the ropes. George warned me die lobster fishermen to get their feet caught in the strings – I would not let me go.
Once it has loaded all baited traps, it was my job to drive first with water to restore the chain. It was exciting to see him fall the stern. They did not catch anything – guess I did not cry enough.
In the fifth string in traps, which began catching lobster. Our luck was changing. I was so excited I was dizzy. I shouted: "Look we took, look what we have. "George reminded me:" There will be none of that, keep crying and complain. "So I kept screaming and rebaiting traps as fast as I could.
Once he took off to go to the next series of traps, my job was to put rubber bands on lobster claws and throw them into the live well. He showed me once and was warned to be careful not to be stuck on my search engine. I've heard, but within five minutes had a lobster attached thumb. It felt like crazy, but I did not see George. I just took my hand and thumb should leave the lobster before being removed blood. God thank you, we were released and the next set of traps.
The day was incredible, the sea was beautiful, the weather was perfect and I had the time of my life. At noon it had risen more than 100 traps and captured more than 100 pounds of lobster. My body hurts, but I never imagined I do not leave areas not stop.
On the way back to the dock, George told me it was a lobster fisherman from part-time fishermen and everything they are about liars. He had hair all day, but I do not care – it was fun. I also said I could hard at any time. He was impressed by how hard they worked. As we headed to the land, from George all kinds of stories Lobster with me and taught me to drive the boat.
We arrived back in the dock safely. He gave me 16 lobsters home for dinner that my payment for the day. I said thank you and started walking home, the smell and content, a bag full of lobsters.
Dreams come true. But some dreams come true, you should ask what we need. A friend of mine once told me: "Michelle is not what you want because you're afraid to ask." I was not afraid of that day. I took a chance and asked him what he wanted and what happened.
I invite you to ask for what you need. Start by asking for small things. Practice to ask people security. Develop their skills. To give you the life you want – you should ask others what you need.
