I slowed to a almost crawl speed with the sadness of my circumstance looming before me like a wave rising over the shore preparing to crash over me.  So I walked into the wave like it was the bringer of freedom.  The wave of freedom poured over me to wash away the fear of failure and left behind the hope of change.
