I have not surrendered.
I have not turned my life and my will over to the care of my higher power.
I don't understand what people mean when they tell me to "take it easy." Take what easy? Take it where? What are they talking about?
I regularly put my canoe in the stream and promptly begin paddling against the current. Why? Because it's where I want to go. Yes, I know it makes sense to "go with the flow," to not fight the movement of the water, but I can't help it. I have even been known to take my canoe out of the water and carry it over a mountain, through brambles and sticker bushes, leaping off a cliff to land at the same place that a gentle although longer canoe ride would have provided.
Maybe life is my enemy. Maybe everything is my enemy. I'm certainly a fighter.
