Another post for my class – this one inspired by a single image.

Life is too short to be huddled on the dock shivering and hoping for the courage to take the plunge. Courage isn’t the opposite of fear. Courage is fear’s companion.

Are you going to contemplate your future on the dock or swim towards it in the water? I’m diving in. Join me!
