Life's a beach.

This is life. 

Like waves, we'll crash against the shore only to go back out into the ocean. We'll kiss goodbye the sparkling sand only to return time after time with our hellos. Every time we come back, we'll bring something new. We'll come back anew. Be brave to face the newness. Be brave to say your goodbyes. Be brave and believe in see you laters. Be brave and say your hellos. Be brave enough to go against the current. Be brave to be carried by the currents of life. Be brave. 

Like waves, we are part of something bigger. There's so much more to the life that we're living, and the most beautiful part is that there's already also so much in the life that we are living. Never rush to go away or to move towards the shore. At the same time, don't delay when you know what you know. No matter how far you go out in the ocean, like waves, we were made to keep coming back to the shore. Seek the Truth that you have been made to keep coming back to. There will be no fear in venturing out into the deep, the unknown, or the uncharted parts of life when you know you can come back to a safe place. The biggest regret we'll have in life will be allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by our fear of failure or of losing. Let the old cliche ring true: "Ask yourself what you would do if you knew you couldn't fail then go do it." At the end of it all, our failures and our successes in life are all integral parts of the victory that await us. At the end of it all, it will only be the beginning. Life really is the adventure that never ends. Let its depth be as immeasurable as the deepest parts of the ocean. Someday, we will kiss this temporal life goodbye to greet eternity hello. 

This is life... and more.
