Treading Water

Aoife back again with Saturday's post.

I am renown for always being late so I apologise for missing the last few deadlines.

So I don't know what this week's theme is so I wanted to share with you a story( don't if you can call it a story but anyway) about dealing with the journey and trial that life can be.

Treading Water

All we ever really need to do is keep our heads above water. No matter how hard it may be or how heavy you feel, if you could keep your head up you will live. 

Struggle onwards, stumbling and faltering, weak and confused though you are because if you keep going you will grow stronger, faster, wiser and you, my friend will rise. 
Leave behind the darkened water and move forward. 
Look back occasionally to see how far you have come and all you have accomplished but don't linger there, look forward so you can see the path. 
Wonder and weave, explore the side roads and vallys all around you as you journey on because it is not the destination that matters as much as the journey itself.

The path you take may not be the wisest or best nor the one you would have liked to take- but travel on and learn from it. Chose wiser next time and laugh over rash judgements with people you meet along the way. Because all path cross at some point and if you do not take the chances you are given then life will pass you by.


Sometimes I think I get so caught up in the everyday monotony of working for the future that I neglect the life I'm living right now. It's so easy to focus solely on the goal and forget that what you learn along the road is equally important.

You life and time are your's so remember to cherish them because time once lost does not come again.

That's all for this week.
See you next Saturday (hopefully),
Aoife
