During my son's swimming lesson today, the thought crossed my mind that life is a lot like swimming:
When times get too tough to endure, some of us go off the deep end.
Sometimes, we have to struggle to keep our heads above the water.
When you're trying to keep a bad situation from becoming worse, you must tread water.
When life is going great and then all of a sudden some aspect of life becomes a disaster, we take a nose dive.
When you experience a huge, unexpected expense that completely turns your finances on its ear and you can't recover from it, you drown.
Life is like water, we either stay afloat, tread water, or drown in the events that Life throws at us, but at least we have the choice as to how well we handle the fate we're given.
