My Dad


Young girl was on board an old sailing ship on a wild windy day. The crew was rushing around to ensure all safety procedures were taken, cause the clouds and gusts were increasing rapidly. Water was now pounding the deck and ripping away at the ship, and they had to move fast.

One sailor was almost taken away by the water, as his mates scurried to do all they could to help. One noticed the girl playfully undisturbed and running across the deck. Well, they grabbed her to put her down in the gally - they could not understand how she just stood there unperturbed. She was not afraid whatsoever.

They asked her, "How can you be so calm at a time like this?"

She quietly answered, "Oh, I'm not afraid of anything going on here, my dad is the Captain".
