Swim with the current



Recently, SwissMiss suggested this short film about a 90 year swimmer on her blog.

It was highlighted on Vimeo as being about the power of ritual. But I think it's about so much more.

It's about loneliness, hope, depression, meditation, mindfulness, and retaining a sense of wonder. 

It's also about application, persistence, stickability, problem solving and the never give up/never surrender school of thinking.

It's also about integrity, commitment, self-directedness, self-discipline, self-esteem and self-efficacy.

It's also about emotions, change, aging and questions and answers.

It's about life and education and learning and teaching.

It's a wonderful short film. It does a lot in less than 2 minutes.

Go look and learn!
