At a certain point
the water deepens,
the ground beneath
begins to shift,
the earth becomes invisible
each step becomes an unknown risk.
You can become afraid to move,
You cannot leave a game unwon
important things remain for you.
… just get them done.

None of us know how much time is left. I am so frustrated by my inability to help move things forward and fear that time will be the faster of us two.
