How dare he call to wish me a happy holiday and flaunt the fact that he has someone to spend this holiday with?! This my favorite holiday and I have always spent it with loved ones. This is the first Christmas where I’ll be all by myself and the pain is almost more than I can bear. I have always heard about how lonely and pain filled this holiday can be for people and I always felt so bad for those who had no one to spend this holiday with. This is the first time in my entire life I will not be with anyone for Christmas. I can’t wait until the holidays are over.
I wish for all you dear people a very happy Christmas, filled with joy and warmth and the love of your families and friends. Brightest of Blessings and all my love to you.

It must have been that batch of Egg Nog the ships cook whipped up. The Rum content was high and I know that you had a few sips…
You were / are not alone during the holidays. Nope. You stood beside me all night on mid watch. We chatted, sipped hot coffee and did Rum shooters. (probably the cause of this entire mess.) I was there when that call came in over the cell. We put it on speaker phone remember? He said that he was going to be home alone for the holidays and he was miserable. So he openly admitted that took his drunk self down the road and ‘purchased’ company with the last of his coin! We laughed until we fell down at that! Remember? I caught you and we looked into each others eyes a moment too long and then our lips met softly… I thought my kisses memorable but I guess copious amounts of Rum can do that to a mate! It was three bells. I remember it clear as the stars in the winter sky.
No my lady you are not alone this holiday. We stand on deck, hand in hand, sailing toward the future…
