THE SEA

 

When the seas roar and the mountains soar, and you’ve been blocked from your journey. One must find a way around…

 

This world is full of highs and lows. If only the sea could stay calm, but it doesn’t…it can never remain calm…when the sea speaks—we listen and hang on for dear life. We guard ourselves with layers of protection. With unsteady legs we walk. Our ships are not equipped, and we are only limited with experience—but we have faith that soon the storm will pass, and the clouds will part, and the light of the world will shine once more.

 

The further you dream…the harder it may seem…

 

No matter what this world tells you, you are…you will stride forth and knock down each barrier because you are a force. God will cup you in his hands and protect your free will to dream because he put those gifts in you to use them. So, when the storm comes just know he’s there watching over you and also know there’s always another way…

Far too long, I’ve beat myself up over my failures. But I wouldn’t be who I am without them. And I couldn’t be an honest writer without living a life that’s not always perfect.

 

So, let the lavender of peace distress your soul. And know…with time and patience…there’s a big world out there waiting for you.
