🌿 Daily Hug #404 — Dead Reckoning
Everyone deserves a hug.
Before GPS, sailors navigated by dead reckoning.
No landmarks. No satellites.
Just: here’s where I started,
here’s how fast I’ve been going,
here’s how long I’ve been moving,
therefore: here’s probably where I am.
Best guess. Educated, but still a guess.
They crossed oceans like this.
They were often wrong.
They still crossed oceans.
Steady One,
you’ve been navigating by dead reckoning your whole life.
No manual for most of it.
Just: here’s what I know, here’s where I’m headed,
here’s my best estimate.
That’s not flying blind.
That’s what navigation actually is.
With confidence in your heading,
The Soul Council
P.S. The sailors also had each other. Nobody crossed an ocean alone.
