When you get out sailing, you drop life as you know it right now. At least we do. We are immediately free of stress and the consumer environment and glad to leave it behind. We shift our attention to where it belongs, each other, and those are beautiful days. We are happy to get out on the boat and often save important conversations to discuss them on the boat, free from distractions. I think that there will be a natural settling-in period, but after that you'll both love the union you'll re-discover with each other and the connection to the world, which we do not get at home.
