Now that the action is over and we've been granted shoreleave I can't ignore the thoughts running through my head as a result of recent events. As a Starfleet Officer first and foremost I wonder if I've done enough. Or what I could have done differently.

Flight control is looking to me for support and guidance, yet I'm also battling my own demons. That's part of the job but it doesn't make things any easier. Sure I've spent some time with Kiri and others but being able to confide in someone doesn't just happen overnight. Yes I need to be more social and make more friends but that takes time.

After missions like our recent one I find myself questioning many things. Sure things will get better as time passes but there will always be a bit of a void. I don't know of a better way to put it. Right now things are still too confused. There were a few official events I had to attend as a Department Head but that's it.

Galileo is essentially grounded for now. The crew had been granted shoreleave. Sure I'll have official paper work and some repair related stuff to supervise from time to time. Checking on my department but my work load will be very light compared with a normal active duty day.

While there is much more to this whole story I've said what I can. Even on a science ship we deal with things that are not common knowledge. That is just another part of working for Starfleet. I'll just leave it at that.

Currently I don't have all the answers that much I know. All I can do is take things day by day.
