"Fishing & not catching!"
"Fishing & not catching," caught me by surprise yesterday!
On a whim, I decided to go fishing.
Long story short, I didn't catch a single fish, though I got a few "bites of life."
I did however, "catch," an amazing message from my dad...
In my frustration of not having a successful catch...
He said, " that's why it is called, fishing and not catching"...
It took me a while to understand the message...
But after moments of pondering on his words; it made me think....
Anyone can "catch" something, but it takes skill, patience and determination to "fish" & retrieve something!
I, like many other people, crave instant gratification in life.
But just like fishing, great "snatches" take time.
I needed to hear that message and I hope that it helps you too.
Sometimes the small fish is worth throwing back...
The next bite could be your biggest grab yet!
KEEP FISHING, KEEP GOING! :)
