“Now, you’re in the river, so keep swimming.”

Thoughts of A Rose 1 Minute

I feel things are out of my control right now. It’s a bit uncomfortable. My parents have this saying, “Now, you’re in the river, so keep swimming.” This means, that in spite of all the obstacles I have to keep moving forward–Even if it’s “turtle-ing” it. I can only hope people are understanding. But even that’s out my control. I can only pray. What’s my control right now? Only my truth.

  3. You are refreshing. And you are right…truth is all we have and truth always wins. Sometimes when I was “swimming” I had to turn on my back and just float for awhile. It takes a lot less effort. Thanks for your post.
