Swimming in the sea of life

Sometimes it feels like drowning, with nothing to hold on to. The sun is quickly fading and I will be here alone in the darkness, trying to stay afloat.

Wouldn’t it be easier to just surrender, go under and fade out?

Maybe, maybe not, for I realised that the drive to survive is very strong, it is in me anyway.  I have not given up hope yet. So begins the journey, or should I say the journey started the day I took my first breath and will end with the last.

This is the middle but it feels like I am only starting, only waking up from a long sleep with the vague recollection of a dream, shadow figures of people I once knew, of a life..

Was that mine? Was it me?

Like a sculptor who releases the form from within the block of stone I am removing the layers until I see the truth. View all posts by Annie
