Pushing agaist the tumultuous wind:
One step forward, two back.
Can’t get a foothold in this deserty sand
And I just keep slip-sliding away.
Trying to move forward in this ocean of waves
Pounding me back to where it thinks I belong.
Thrashing and diving and holding my breath
And I just keep slip-sliding away.
Climbing the mountain to get to the top,
But hedges and ledges keep blocking my way.
Watching for rocks that fall from above
And I just keep slip-sliding away.
Hacking and slashing and making a trail,
As brambles and thickets cut through my flesh.
Not even knowing where the hell am I going
And I just keep slip-sliding away.
Then a sunbeam highlights a hidden path
That leads to a meadow of silence.
I lay down in its softness and close my eyes
And I just keep slip-sliding away..

Life is not straight, it is a zigzag. There are good days and others not so good. The "good" is that he has realized that detail and does not panic or push the limit. We have to wait and slide, as you say.
You have done a great job, honey!

sometimes we keep pushing ourselves and then we realize this was not the way we were meant to go, we need to take time to look after ourselves and not always push onwards. it is something that is hard to do this thing called self love xxx
