Swim

You never know what you're made of.

Until you're thrown into the pool.

And can't swim.

Until things get bad.

Until you’re living a life that you don't like.

Until you're barely treading water.

Then you can see.

You can start to see clearly.

What really matters.

To you.

To those you love.

This is cautionary.

Don't wait.

Don't wait for life to slap some sense into you.

Do it now.

Slap yourself.

Give yourself a jolt of CPR.

Compassion.

Presence.

Resilience.

Don't wait to see clearly.

Don't wait to see what matters.

What really matters.

Keep doing it until you wake up.

Until you wake up to now.

To what matters.

To what your heart is begging you to do.

To swim in love.
