Some of the amazing life lessons from surfing:⠀
⠀
1) Paddling out to catch a wave you must take hit after hit after hit of waves that feel like they are taking you 10 strokes back only to take 2 strokes forward before being pummelled again! It hurts, it is hard, but once you get out there and catch a wave, all the hurdles are so so worth it! 💥⠀
⠀
2) The work to catch a wave takes strength and power to paddle and pop up into a crouch on a moving wave....yet once up you gotta let go and surrender to that wave otherwise it will knock your stiff butt off that board! My youngest daughter was the best surfer of us all as she was so relaxed once she popped up! Lesson - put in the work but then surrender to what comes from the effort❤️⠀
⠀
3) When the right wave comes along you gotta paddle like heck to catch it. It takes patience waiting for the right wave, and there are no guarantees you’ll catch it, but when it comes, you got give it ALL YOU GOT to seize that one second where you pop up and relax into the blissful ride 🏄♀️⠀
⠀
Here’s to all those amazing surfers out there! I am inspired and hungry to get back out there to be humbled and thrilled at the same time!✨❤️⠀
