On the Hunt...

... for paper towel rolls! I need some (only about 30) for a VBS craft. If you have any that you can bring to me, PLEASE help! Even if you live far away, you can mail them. (Insert laught here). I might start collecting toilet paper rolls if I can't get enough, so save those too.

Anyways... on to the next part of my page long to-do list!

Keep Swimming

So the little song from Finding Nemo keeps popping into my head. You know it... "Just keep swimming"...

Mom and I were talking yesterday and I came to this realization. Not really a realization since I already knew it. I just found a way to put it into words.

Life is like swimming in the ocean. Some days the water is calm and the weather is great. Sometimes it gets a little rough, but you make it through and back into the calmer, shallow parts. But every once in awhile, you drift too far out. You keep swimming and swimming. Just as soon as you get your head above the water, another wave comes along to challenge you again. So you keep swimming just to get to the top. Or if it's not the waves that try to knock you under, it's a current. The problem with currents is that you have no control. They will take you where they want to go. You know that you can't fight it. You just have to swim with it until you can finally break away. Back to the shore, where the water is calm and quiet again.

Well, that's life. Crashing waves and strong currents will come, amidst the calm and fun waves. Just keep swimming.
