CAN YOU BREATH UNDER THE WATER?
I recently read that one of the first aspects of your training upon joining the United States Military is preparing for the following worst case scenarios.
- What to do when your gun is jammed
- How to carry a dead body
Is it not interesting that the most flamboyant aspects of training are withheld at first - combat, endurance, strength, weaponry, etc.
That you must first learn to perform under the most impossible circumstances is first a teachable moment for me, that I wish to share with you.
Are you only able to shine at your brightest when the conditions are perfect?
Are you only able to give/receive love/appreciation when the dopamine is momentarily hitting?
Are you able to step up to the plate like a Champions League CR7 playing away from home and with 100 million spectators and shout your "siiuuu"?
In the words of King Solomon, “He who watches the wind will not sow, and he who looks at the clouds will not reap”
So, yeah, some days will bang in all glory and perfection, and aren't we grateful for those moments.
The best of men learn to perform in bad weather, but The Gods?
The Gods have learned to breathe under water.
Can you breathe under water?
Will you?
By the way, that title was inspired by a song, Under Water, written and performed by my friend, NC Grey.

Please give it a listen… and if you’re inspired by it, do post it to your story and tag her () telling her what it means to you.
I think she’d appreciate that.
