We must sail sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it -- but sail we must, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
--Oliver Wendell Holmes
I keep this quote in mind today, while fighting through my writer's block. If I just keep moving forward, I know there will be gems that surface along the way. I know he is speaking of life in general, but I like thinking of writing as a sailboat ride through the ocean. Sometimes, the water is calm and easy going with the sun shining at you from above and below, and sometimes you have to fight a tempest just to make it out alive. What a journey!
