My all-time favorite movie quote (and, like any good nerd, I've got a zillion of them stored away), is Dory's line when her friend, Marlin, is freaking out and losing his $h*t over a dropped clue to his son's whereabouts. He wigs out, and she swims past him to the deep dark depths of the ocean to go after the goggles. As she does, she consoles him with her own mantra, "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming and swimming and swimming..."
It is often my mantra, too. When things get rough, long or miserable (sometimes you get whacked with all three!), I get through it by channeling Dory, and I just keep swimming. Eventually, I get through whatever muck it is and I come out the other side.
This is one of those times. I'll be okay, though, because I just keep swimming.
Simple, effective and real.
It works,
Dani
