A message from the dolphins

If you could be something other than human for 24 hours – what would you be? My answer came with ease…a dolphin!

There’s something about the ocean that calls to a deep part of me – the part that longs for both: solitude and connection. I imagined myself swimming through turquoise water, sunlight flickering beneath the surface, surrounded by my pod – but free.

No pressure to perform, no need to fight against the current. Just existing, moving with the rhythm of the sea. And then the following thought struck me: Go with the flow. You don’t have to fight!

It’s simple. But yet it ain’t easy at all…

As humans, we often feel like we have to swim upstream – push harder, do more, resist what is. But what if, like dolphins, we trusted the water to carry us? What if we allowed the tides of life to guide our course, instead of constantly battling them?

Going with the flow doesn’t mean giving up. It means tuning in. Sensing the changes in the water, and moving in harmony with them. It’s a dance between effort and surrender. Between knowing when to leap, and when to drift.

That’s the lesson I take from my imaginary dolphin day – and from the breathtaking adventure swimming with wild dolphins…and maybe, just maybe, it’s one we all need to hear.

So today, I invite you to ask yourself: Where in my life am I swimming upstream? Where might I let go… and float for a while? Because the truth is – sometimes the most powerful move is to stop resisting.

Thanks for having taken the time to read until here. I hope this reflection brought you a moment of peace, a breath of ocean air, and a bit of flow…and remember: you don’t have to fight the current.

Sending love and light, Sabrina aka Dancer BRiNA
