Captains of Enterprise and 1000 boats
Sittin' on the dock of the bay...no tide rolling in or out, just the gentle rocking of boats in the southern california sun.
Steadfast...Ocean Friend...Magic Moments...in The Mist...Sea Eagle. Just a few of what must be a thousand boats and yachts floating outside my hotel room in San Diego Harbor. A few sailboats escape out to sea...what a day! I'm taking a "slowing" break after speaking to a group of business leaders this morning at the Hall of Champions.
I'm reminded sitting here of one of my favorite lines from Shakespeare, "When the sea was calm, all ships alike showed mastery in FLOATING." We don't say it like that in Tennessee, but it basically means (I think) "when it's easy, anyone can look like a ship's captain." But with the wind and the waves when the skill of a true captain is needed, it doesn't take long to find out who's for real.
Much like the "Captains of Enterprise" in this morning's audience who make free enterprise great in this NOW economy.
I love San Diego...especially on days like this one.
