stirring thoughts from a traveler on a journey along life's trails and pathways... its valleys and mountains and oceans too, of simple joys and intricate weaves of adventure...thoughts of hope in the goodness of things and faith in a loving God...a way of seizing the day.

Its going to be OK
In diving, this hand signal means OK. If you flash this hand sign you should be able to get a similar hand sign indicating that your buddy is a-ok. When I was learning to dive, it took me quite a while to get over my fear of the water. Like the one I posted about "floating" a few months back. More often than not I get really panicky under water until I have learned to relax and trust that the water has a property called bouyancy and that if I just relax I will float. Whenever I rely on my own strength, I feel heavy and start sinking. It is only when I allow myself to float, to let this force carry me through that I become light. I have been in deep waters before both literally and figuratively and today, I am very glad to get this signal from Him.
In my ears I could hear "I can see clearly now the rain has gone, I can see all obstacles in my way, its gonna be a bright, bright sun shiny day!"
