SHIP'S LOG:

Well, the "For Sale" ad for ABISHAG finally showed up yesterday. I think I am going to have to re-shot the photos because they are not really good enough. True, I am still in the process of setting her up for the winter, but she looks a bit more disheveled that she should. Not that I would turn down a fair offer, but if she looks too disheveled and in too much disarray, some greedy bastard might try to low-ball the price. I can't have that. Selling her is bad enough but giving her away would be a crime.

I am picking up a tarp and some line and will head down tomorrow to cover the cockpit. I will also take the time to re-shot the photos. The brokers, God bless them, took the "necessary picture but not her best ones. They didn't move anything and just shot what was there and it simply doesn't show her in her best light. , who love her, will do that tomorrow and pass them onto the brokers.

MASTER'S PERSONAL LOG:

It sound strange but I want hr sold as quickly as possible. If it drags out it will be like a long and lingering death. Since she really has to go, I just want it over and done with. To quote Sidney Greenstreet in The Maltese Falcon, "The quickest Goodbyes are the best." I don't know if it will happen, but now i am hoping that it does, and quickly. "Here's looking at you, kid."

    Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am becoming as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

    I Cor. xiii.i


    SEE that only Love tells.

    Only what is done in Love lasts, for God is Love, and only the work of God remains.

    The fame of the world, the applause given to the one who speaks with the tongues of men and of angels,

    …who attracts admiration and compels attention,

    …it is all given to what is passing, is really worthless, if it lacks that God-quality…Love.

    Think how a smile, or word of Love, goes winged on its way, a God-Power, simple though it may seem,

    …while the mighty words of an orator can fall fruitless to the ground.

    The test of all true work and words--- are they inspired by Love?

    If man only saw how vain is so much of his activity!

    So much work done in My Name is not acknowledged by Me.

    As for Love.

    Turn out from your hearts and lives all that is not loving,

    …so shall ye bear much fruit, and by this shall all men know ye are My disciples,

    …because ye have Love

    …one toward another.
