just when you think you’ve hit calm waters, currents take you out deep, where the waves are massive, where the riptide grabs you and keeps...and you think…
That's when you hold shut your eyes and your mouth, hold your breath, and hope like hell someone throws you a life preserver! Hope you aren't out there bobbing somewhere, with no ship on the horizon and sharks circling :)
It's a typical life. Currents and tides. Ebb and flow. Give and take. Profound and razor shallow.

ReplyDeleteNor do I, nor, do I. The worst of it is the deepness that waits to engulf all who go too far.
