Here’s a video I found online the other day that caused me to reflect on my work and life. Check it out for yourself and let me know what you think.
Watching this video reminded me of life.
Some days I’ve been, (and might still be at times) the dolphin, needing someone to help me to breathe again, and some days I’ve been (and will still need to be) the person pulling another back to safety, acceptance, or whatever the water might represent for them at the time.
For me, it was another reminder of the interconnectedness of us all, and that I am who I am because of others.
What do you think?
Grace & Peace,
Relando Thompkins, MSW

I cannot agree enough, I think so many people spend so much time ignoring interdependence and could benefit significantly psychologically by coming to some understanding of it.
What a great share Relando! Thanks for brightening up my day.
Thank you both! This video really brightened up my day as well when I saw it. I couldn’t help but sit back and think to myself, “Isn’t this just like life?” It also reminded me of how one person can make a difference. It all started with one person, then another joined in to help save the dolphins, and pretty soon, a lot more people on the beach joined in. I think there’s a lot of lessons packed into this short video.
