Life is All About Lakes and Portages

I have learned to think that I am only ever one of two places in life: I am either on a lake, or I’m on a portage trail. The lakes are great, the portages are rough. When you get to the end of your lake, what will you do? Will you be content with the lake you have found, will you return from where you came, or will you continue on even if it means a period of hardship? This is the lesson - to embrace the suck.
