SMOOTH SAILING OR DEEP LESSONS
“A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.” — Franklin D. Roosevelt
Life is a journey full of waves and tides, some tranquil and others tumultuous. One of my favorite things is the ocean on a serene day—its calm, mirror-like surface reflecting the sky’s beauty. However, while peaceful and enjoyable, such waters do little to teach the sailor resilience, strategy, or courage. True growth arises when the waves swell, the winds howl, and the horizon becomes uncertain. It’s in these moments of adversity that skill, determination, and faith are honed. In our lives, the “smooth seas” are those periods when everything seems to flow effortlessly. While these times are a gift and provide much-needed rest, they are not the moments that shape us. It is the storms—the heartbreaks, failures, losses, and doubts—that truly mold us.
Dear Angels, like the sailor wrestling with the elements, we learn how to navigate life’s storms with perseverance and grace. We discover our inner strength, uncover latent talents, and build unwavering confidence in our ability to weather life’s uncertainties.
Dear Ones, when you face challenges, it is easy to despair, to wish for smoother seas. But consider that every wave, no matter how formidable, has the power to lift you higher. Each challenge presents an opportunity to rise stronger, wiser, and more compassionate. It is through these struggles that you become more attuned to the vast power within, as well as the divine guidance always available to steer you through. In the eye of the storm, you also find moments of clarity. The winds may rage, and the rain may pour, but there is a quiet center within each of you—a place of calm where you can connect with the Divine and your higher self. It is from this sacred space that you draw the strength to continue forward, even when the storm shows no sign of relenting. When the storm finally passes and the seas calm, you emerge transformed. You stand taller, equipped with hard-earned wisdom and a deeper appreciation for the journey. You carry within you not only the skills to face future challenges but also the unwavering knowledge that no storm lasts forever. As you sail through life, remember that each choppy wave and each fierce gale is forging a skilled sailor within you. Trust in your ability to navigate through the storm, and lean on the divine forces always present to guide you. When the seas settle once more, you will find yourself not only stronger but also more attuned to the beauty and vastness of life’s ocean. So, embrace the waves. Trust the process. Let each storm transform you into the skilled sailor you were meant to be.
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to stop wishing for smooth sailing and instead ride the waves of life.
