Lady L has been taking swimming for almost a year now. She has graduated to the class that Mama does not have to get in the water with her anymore. This is HUGE.
I remember last summer sitting with her in her little wading pool doing tick-tock songs where she would quickly dip her face and sputter out the water. The thought of her really swimming with her face submerged makes me smile.
As children learn to swim they start in the shallow water right by the edge of the pool or the steps that guarantee freedom from their building fears. With a solid foundation of lessons, they begin to build confidence to let go and slowly begin to feel safe anywhere in the pool. With this new found confidence comes freedom and buoyancy as they take on deeper waters.
We must believe that we too can let go and trust the Universe around us to support us. We can be free from our limited thinking and allow ourselves to grow in God's love in the world around us.
He surrounds and supports us through each day of our journey.
Words of my Heart,
Laurie
