Where the roses bloom Quotes

“Do you remember when we sailed together for the very first time? You were so little. I recall seeing the reflection of the sea and sky in your eyes. What did I teach you to do when you felt like your boat was about to capsize? Your earthly instincts told you to pull hard on the rope, making the mainsail tight. But it was the opposite we needed to do, remember? We had to loosen the sail to allow the wind to enter it to stabilise the boat and propel us forward.

My darling, never let go of the ropes, but loosen the sail of your life sometimes. Let the wind carry your boat and trust Adonai.”
― Dalma Dufresne, Where the roses bloom
