I said. Dad, being a captain, having control of your own ship sound very interesting.

Here is what i he said, and what I can remember.

Son, almost everyone can by study and practice be a good captain and take a ship safely from a to z. But being a captain on a passenger ship, demands more than just have your head filled with stuff regarding sea safety, plot a course etc.

You have to be like a father, priest, judge etc, remember you have hundreder if not thousand soul in your hand and they trust you.

Could have missed some part or could have put words in he didn't say.

Wise and true words from your father....a lot of responsibility indeed.

I'm sure our kids are all as good as one another....the paths they take aren't always the same but they are all very special
