The importance of the Quiet Moment

 

I was vising a work center, and talking to a sailor who has come to me for counseling recently. She quietly thanked me for taking the time to listen to her earlier that week.

She explained that when she comes to talk to me, it is helpful and meaningful.

I put my hand on her shoulder, quietly whispering how grateful I was to be here for her.

 

Those are the quiet moments of affirmation that mean so much to me.

I will miss this ship.
