I like swimming against the current,
but only because it makes me feel
I’ve earned the ease and pleasure
of floating back to where I started.

ah – the floating part.
Lately I feel like I am swimming far too frequently against the current – looking forward to the floating..
Lately? Often (for me) 🙂 Need the floating. Need the floating.
I already said “yes”. And now I’m back where I started.
Laughing. I get it!
Hmm…so interesting. Just earlier this morning I was thinking about some of the challenges that have been met and overcome in the last few years..and how I appreciate what they have given and taught me. Where I am now because of them. I feel like this kind of matches that thought bubble, so once again DK, your timing is mysteriously impeccable.
Excellent…so glad.
I read a quote last night, “The only real battle in life is hanging on or letting go”. Sharon Adler. Ah, the letting go…….
Yes….that’s it…
