“So, you hold a piece of pain in your hands as you row down the stream, it get’s so heavy, your hands get tired and the pain spreads up your wrist all the way up your arm until your whole body is aching… the pain is not killing you, you are killing yourself by not letting it go. So, let it go, and life will take back the pain and spread it out. You can continue rowing as peacefully as you choose. And don’t fight too hard against the way the river flows.”
