What a marvelous & profoundly touching story. Thank you so much for sharing it! ‘May you (also), and all those you love, be blessed and surrounded by people who will swim with you in the deep waters and who will help you become untangled from the things that bind you.’ May we all ‘know the joy of giving and receiving gratitude.’ How beautifully expressed! I have a none profit of sending loving kindness around the world. May I use that beautiful wish in one of the cards we sent out? (See http://www.SendOutCards.com/Eden)

dear Jane
thank you so much for this..
on a boat watching whales i was honored to have
a whale come to the side i was on(everyone was on the other side!) in Mass. Bay in 1997–and this being of great light and love looked me in the eye with her or his
eye!…It was beyond words….the Divine peeking out at me in this sea being..
love and peace

I enjoyed reading this so much! It moved me deeply. It shows how animals have some of the same feelings as we have….joy…fear….depression! That whale sensed that they were not there to do harm! I wish there were more stories of this nature in our newspapers! I’ve heard about these horror stories about animals caught in these fishing or crab nets and lines! It seems like they could be made in such a way that they would be more environmentally friendly! Thank you, Michael, for the Irish Blessing! It was lovely!

Dear Jane,

Thank you so much for sharing this incredible story! I’ve forwarded it to all in my address book. Just found your blog and am amazed that you’re able to share so much of yourself with others even though your life is busy and full. I’ll be popping in to enjoy your adventures vicariously. Wishing you all the best from South Georgia,

Jane, I don’t know if when you wrote this that it came out sounding like an Irish Blessing.

“May you, and all those you love, be so blessed and fortunate to be surrounded by people who will swim with you in the deep waters that may engulf you, and who will help you become untangled from the things that bind you. And, may you always know the joy of giving and receiving gratitude.”

But this so touched me, I think I will have it made into a Plaque to hang to hang in my living room.

Thank You, for the Blessing.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful story! I read it with tears in my eyes and then I read it out loud to my husband and cried while reading it. There is so much violence and sadness in the world so to read about a lovely event like this gives one hope to still be optimistic about humanity. Thank you.

I too rejoice in the courage and humanity of the peopel who saved the whale, and in her (the whale’s) courage, grace under pressure, intelligence, and wonderful gratitude. When will we human beings come to our senses, stop poisoning & polluting the environment…and stop underestimating our brothers and sisters, the animals and birds.

Jane, thank you so very much for sharing this beautiful story. ‘Break a leg’ on Broadway.
