Life is dynamic and we spend much of it navigating the ever-changing tide. From still waters to ripples to tumultuous waves, we brave its unpredictable nature daily. Each individual journey is different but the hope is that as we mature we get better at maneuvering through to calmer seas.

At this juncture of my life I’ve encountered my share of storms and I’ve come out of some more battered than others. But each experience has led to a greater appreciation of the those uneventful calmer days that allow me to recharge and replenish my strength.

No matter the future I do know this, I’m learning it’s best to preserve my energy and pick my battles. I no longer fight the current, I ride each wave I encounter.
