“Something I have long known to be true is that we simply need to create the conditions for people to flourish and it will inevitably happen.”
Margaret — Thank you for modeling this in yourself and by creating space for others! Your presence in my life and inspires joy and boldness. I’m grateful. 💚
... we simply need to create the conditions for people to flourish and it will inevitably happen⁵. And what marvelous conditions were created for you and the other crew members to learn skills, take risks, let go and have adventures you would never experience without these conditions. Love the way you threw yourself completely into the experience and are ready to do it again!
Margaret, I love everything about this!!! You're braver than I am being out at sea in the dark. I think I could do it but I'd be terrified! What a beautiful ship and an fascinating story. Bravo!
The more I read, the more I love. Your passion to learn and experience new things just takes my breath away. Thank you for leading the way to adventurous living!
I’m resonating with delight to read your enchanting descriptions of life at sea on board the beautiful ship Pelican! I could feel the roll of the ship, as I read, and felt your courage as you climbed up and over to get up the mast to the fore top. Thank you for bringing your voyage to life!
I was spellbound imagining you savoring the stars, and especially your night watch in the gale on deck! Yes! Magnificent!
As a fellow tall ship sailor, your poetic descriptions of your voyage are food for my soul and I appreciate it with all my heart and senses. Now I want to sign up with Sail Training Ireland, and perhaps head out to sea with you on a voyage, you Salty Sailor you.
Thank you for making my day, Margaret. Your writing inspires me!
Ah Betsy, thank you, that's such a lovely response! And I particularly appreciate it as you are such an experienced sea-farer. And how great it would be to be on a voyage with you!
What a wonderful uplifting account Margaret, such an enjoyable read. The wind was somewhat visible here today. I also love the quote ‘My mind is a chaos of delight’.

Thank you Joann! You already know so much about creating these kinds of environments.

Thank you so much Kristi! Though I've no doubt you've shown bravery and courage many times.

Thank you so much Michela! I too love that Darwin quote, imagining his excitement as he wrote up his journals.
