I have no fear of drowning
It’s the breathing that’s taking all this work

~ Dan Haseltine, Charlie Lowell, Stephen Mason, and Matt Odmark

My interpretation of those lyrics is not quite what’s intended, but ‘meaning’ is much like ‘beauty’ - it varies in the eyes of each beholder.

I hear that line running over and over in my head, churning with each effort required to create a reality for my dreams. The decisions have been made and, sink or swim, I’m in the middle of a plan…it’s the blood, sweat and tears that are causing all the sleepless nights.
