I believe stories have the power to reveal certain
truths about our character,”
writes Julian. “I am sure that I am not alone in this quest.”
In one story about Swimming and Floating, the
author draws a parallel between
these two activities and their application to life
and living.
“The waters of life are similar,” he writes. “We need first to get familiar
with situations,
activities and surroundings; float before we dive
in to the waters.
At times we are so motivated that we are blinded to unfamiliar situations.
This is when feeling the water, floating and
swimming come into play---before we dive in.” |
