When you give up on a goal, it is unlikely, your goal / dream will ever be reached. When you choose, instead, to pursue that goal, failure may find you and deal a fatal blow to your dreams. An abandoned goal, rarely gets revived to find its validation becoming a reality. That goal that is pursued, however, will become a reality through persistence and adaptation. Adapt and prevail against the roadblocks that face you. Fortune favors the bold.

When you stop striving for your own personal goals, they become dreams, not realities.

So, with that in mind, we have decided to make BEAR, handicapped friendly In continue to pursue our sailing dreams. Since my vision problems contribute a great deal to my balance problems, we are installing extra handholds and rails to hold as I move around the boat. We’re installing a boarding platform that will connect with our Passable to aid in I’m getting on and off the boat. We need to dig out your old harnesses and see if there suitable for this new boat.

Once these systems have been incorporated into our life aboard, we will make another assessment as to the safety of our plans. I am confident that I will be up to pursuing my goals.
