(Author’s note: It’s been 11 months since my last post here. Part of the reason I needed to take time off was because I was getting into a point of my life where I was just creatively dying. But after taking time off for me, and dealing with things in my life that needed to be dealt with, I am back and hopefully refreshed. I’m hoping to do this every week, and maybe more. Depending. Anyhow, here we go: )
Follow Your Bliss
by Miles H. Rost
————-
Harry uncurled the final rope, dropping onto the deck from the pier.
Turning the key and pressing the ignition, the twin-board engines roared to life. He lowered them into the water, and started maneuvering his craft into the river.
25 years working a soul sucking job at the nation’s police bureau, Harry finally had what he wanted. He was retired and working private security, and enjoyed the one thing he always wanted:
A boat, and the clearance to ride in the evening. A chance to follow his bliss.
He recreated this experience as much as he could. Content in life.

Welcome back, Miles
Welcome back, Miles! I haven’t been very active here either lately but am trying to be more consistent. That sounds like a dream, to just putter around in a boat and relax.
Writing is a harsh mistress who always calls us to her. Welcome back.
happy for him and happy for you as well…
excellent story here with that feeling of boating time and retirement well deserved – could frel his smile
Welcome back and hope you find your bliss, while i search for mine 🙂
Welcome back! A happy story of bliss hopefully, you’ll turn the key to your creative boat every week or so! I understand the struggle.
This was wonderful! I am so happy to hear about someone living their dream.
