THE FUTURE
JC: In 10 year’s time Scotty will be 53 and right now has no idea where he will be and what he will be doing. Up until now in life he has followed the ‘flow’ and no doubt that’s the way he’ll continue to roll …
SM: “53! That’s a scary thought! I’m not much of a planner. There’s no way I could’ve mapped-out this path to now. I like to think I might be living in Margs looking after some kids or something, or cruising around on a yacht somewhere. I have no idea really what I will be doing. I kinda feel like I’m just along for the ride in this life. Trying to follow the map that’s been laid out before me. I just have to try and listen to what is the right life to lead. Windsurfing has provided such a wide variety of experiences in so many different places meeting amazing people. It’s still the central focus I suppose, but I wrote a long time ago that if instances were different and I was in a relationship with a family it wouldn’t be that way. It’s just that hasn’t happened! I don’t have a family of my own, but feel I have such a wide extended family as a result of windsurfing that I know I can go pretty much anywhere in the world and not be lonely because I have good friends there. I always thought I’d have a family, but perhaps it’s not part of my destiny? Thanks Gramps. JC
