Hello Friends,
When I look out over the harbour I am in awe of the beautiful sailboats that line the landscape. So peaceful and tranquil, they seem as though they glide across the water. Every now and again I see a very small sail boat and an obviously new young sailor and I can't help but smile as I watch their struggle and determination to keep their boat upright. Once in a while it simply topples over and they are in the water trying to figure out how to set the boat afloat and jump aboard again.
It always reminds me that these are the very struggles we encounter in our life that make us stronger and give us a sense of gratitude when we figure things out and make them work. It doesn't always come about with someone rescuing us; rather it's in the trying and the willingness of others to stand by if they are needed to save us. How nice to know in the midst of it all we find strength to right the boat and sail across the horizon once again. It is truly a sense of accomplishment. Until next time...
