I wonder if the majority of people on here spend more than 13 hours a day. It seems crazy to me spending that much time looking at screens but when I see how much time some programming projects take I think wow, they must be looking at screens 80 hours a week to pull this work off.

I sometimes want to watch tv or play video games after work but after already staring at a screen for 9 hours, I have to read a book or do some other activity. Im not sure its good for us.

    Yeah. It’s my favorite place. Love being under water. It’s going to be my biggest trip to date with at least 15 days of diving and 3 weeks of total time in Cozumel.

    I wandered into a shop a few months after my wife passed away and was certified a couple weeks later. I went on my first ocean dive a few months after that in Cozumel and then George Town Cayman Islands. A couple months after that I completed an Advanced Open Water Certification in Jamaica where my wife was from. My Rescue Certification was completed about a year after I got started and I want to become an instructor focusing on training teens and young adults who have survived childhood abuse.

    My goal is to use my Youtube channel as a funding source so I can provide the training and basic gear for free after I cover my training to become an instructor and acquire everything I need. I’m also planning to donate my time to organizations that help other people who would also benefit from learning to dive.

    Editing the video is mind numbing and monotonous but I have yet to find someone else who wants to do it. It’s a lot more fun getting the footage but it had to be done to make things happen.

        Thank you. I know exactly the toll that is paid by the survivors and how at peace I feel when diving so I figure sharing it with others can’t be a bad thing. I just hope things pick up steam soon.
