Working in the Cruise Industry during Covid-19!
The travel industry is suffering big time. As someone who has been in this trade for the last seven-ish years I can’t believe what is happening. Yes, no one could have predicted what would happen and nothing like this ever has occurred before, which is why everything has gone peeeeeetong. I was on board Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas as a Sports Staff and by god was it turning out to be one the best contracts. Then we were hit with Covid-19 scares. None of us actually had it or were in the line of the disease, but it hit the US like a hurricane.

Nature
In the end, trees begin to slow their growth and find a suitable resting place. However, a tree’s trunk continues to thicken throughout its lifetime, adding new rings each year to represent ongoing changes. In this way, trees are similar to humans. Although physical growth halts, we continue to grow in a multitude of ways. We develop language for communication, empathy and understanding, and emotions, like happiness, compassion, and love. We endure hardships and storms along the way, just like trees. We fall, we make mistakes, and we get back up. Humans shed that which is no longer needed for life, just as trees drop their dried, depleted leaves on the cold, damp ground each Autumn. We let go of negative energy, troubling memories, excess weight, carbon dioxide, and other unecessary items from our backpacks along our journeys. With this shedding, we turn to anticipation of new growth and maybe even excitement about the future. We set off on a new path, and our branches continue to grow and change. Eventually, we do forge one last fall, and return to the Earth once again.
