✒ Unexpected Meditations ✒

As I dove into the ocean with my oversized sports diving fin, I couldn't help but feel like a clumsy sea creature trying to find its place in the world. The water was choppy, and I was more afraid of being tossed around by the waves than encountering a shark. But as I started to swim, I felt a sense of calm wash over me like the tide. It was like the ocean knew what I needed and provided it to me in the form of a peaceful swim.

Despite my anxiety and suicidal depression, I found myself getting lost in the rhythm of my strokes. The sound of my breathing and the swish of my fin through the water became a sort of mantra, a reminder to focus on the present moment and let go of my worries. It was like I was swimming away from my problems, leaving them behind on the shore with each stroke.

In the end, it wasn't just the ocean that helped me find peace. Surrounding myself with others in recovery was the turning point that helped me heal. Through the support of others who had struggled with similar issues, I found a sense of belonging and hope for the future. And the ocean, with all its vastness and unpredictability, became a symbol of my journey towards recovery. It reminded me that life can be both beautiful and scary, but as long as I keep swimming, I'll always find my way.
