Sometimes, it is easier to just sit on the shore.
...Especially when the sun isn't out and waves are choppy.
...It is more comfortable to watch the movement of the sea than to take part in it's movement.
To watch, to even be amazed or in awe of what you see.
...It's easier to remain in the same spot than to
get up, move, change, grow, take part.
get up, move, change, grow, take part.
...It's easier to take part in a stagnant routine.
...We tell ourselves that it's safer, more logical, it makes more sense.

But everyday is a chance to grow.
To go deeper. To step off the shore and into the ocean.
To risk. To truly live. To experience life that takes your breath away...
When you can't feel the ground under your feet...
Yet you know that the strongest foundation is beneath you;
you know that the hands that made the world are holding you.

Let's risk the ocean; there's only grace.
