Ship Without a Captain

Yesterday was our first day to physically have no captian on board. We were steering a ship without our skipper.

Sad to say, last week was officially our former boss' last week with us. She will be coming in occasionally, but it will be different. They will merely be apparitions to us who continue to thrive and live in the real world we call our office. Each time she will be passing by, we will most likely be able to smell flowers or candles or.... hmmm.... I guess it is a different being altogether.

As early as now, we are already feeling the emptiness of being orphaned so suddenly.

Personally, I just think of it as her being away for summer in a camp. Or being away for merely a week, and that next week, she'll be back.

Until the new skipper comes along, I guess we'll just have to learn to steer the ship on our own, with the voice of our captain blowing in the wind into our ears every now and then.
