Life

Life is like a boat; to gain control you must lose control.

when the waves are beating against your sides,

you must let them change your course.

But to lose control, you have to give up the control.

Without control, you feel hopeless.

But you must lose control to gain strength.

To gain strength you must be prepared to feel weak.

To pursevere through weakness gives you strength beyond your days. 

To be able to push through the tough winds blowing your ship, 

shows you have the contol to teach others how to do the same.

To gain control you must lose control.
