Disclaimer #2

I don’t have all the answers, but I do have a lot of questions about life and the way we live it in this small world together. I am an observer and feel an urge to speak up when I see discrepancies. I feel we can learn from those that have insight (those who have been there longer than we). We can learn from being quiet, listening and watching. From being a humble guest in someone else’s home. I seek truth and love and these things need not be compromised for anything. I see no conflict of interest in choosing this. My weak point is often my negativity that can arise from being on a different page from everyone around me. I need to present things objectively and critically. It does make me nervous when complex issues are simplified, whitewashed or generally not fully exposed. I trust something more when I see all the sides, good and bad, clear and hazy. I want to understand how something works and sort it out for myself before buying into it. I will never make a great follower. To see my previous disclaimer CLICK HERE.

Have you ever heard of Google Alert? I hadn't until everyone on board the ship began commenting on my blog. I was sure I had never mentioned blogging to anyone. It turns out that you can have Google alert you every time key words pop up on websites and blogs. It also turns out we are monitored by Mercy Ships. I wasn't so sure about this. I suddenly didn't feel that free lack of self-conciousness that I so vulnerably use when expressing my honest and un-manipulated opinions. (Who am I kidding? I try to appear as dramatic and adventurous as possible). But it does make sense in one respect: security. If I were to post our security secrets (I am not sure I know any), that would be a breach. I WILL NOT DIVULGE OUR BANANA BREAD RECIPE! But what about opinions? What about disgruntled moments like my currently sitting in the ship's upper lounge next to the single power outlet and smelling only a strong stench of urine that has been there since I have been living on board? Well, I can just "shout" Mercy Ships on my blog and everyone will read it! Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Slips Mercury Hips. In fact I may just throw it into everything I do...Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships. I am also required to make a disclaiming statement such as the one below (quoted from Mercy Ships Mercy Ships Mercy Ships) I serve on the Mercy Ships. Everything here, however, is my personal opinion and is not read or approved before it is posted.
