Balance
Life itself is a lot like an ocean. You have one minute, hour, day, week, or month of happiness, like you are at the crest of the wave, loving the ride. And then bam! Next you find yourself being held down at the bottom, coughing, choking, and starving for a breath of air, as the wave of life overtakes you. It is an ebb and flow; stormy or calm, and with other days that fall somewhere in-between. Just as the ocean offers us possibilities and challenges, so does life, when it invites us to ride its waves.
And like a surfer, we need to learn how to balance.
