As I think about the ocean and how the tide comes in and out, it reminds me of the ebb and flow of my spirituality. I've noticed that I tend to almost sway in and out of where I want to be spiritually. Sometimes I feel so far away from the shore, it's hard to even imagine getting back, much less getting closer.
I know that many things in life have a cyclical nature, but as I try and grow more spiritual and more grounded, I wish that my spirituality was on ground and not in the constant tug and pull of the ocean.
