Finding my Stride...

Okay so last week I was struggling to hear my song above the noise of impending doom ringing in my ears. But using kayaking terms again I feel that the current has settled and I'm now paddling with the tide rather than against it. I'm not saying the waters are easy, more I'm learning to improve my kayaking skills. I've had a weekend away with the lovely Larry and though I did get my head in the books for a time I know I will need to put in more time this week and next weekend to make up for my time away. Though quality time with Larry, and a rest with sea air to boot has strengthened my resolve and made me all the more determined for this course. I know I'm built for comfort not for speed but there's more gears left to use, of that I'm certain, and I'm turning up the volume to my song. There's nothing that I will allow to drown it out again...x
