This passage was written to Morgan by her mother, Jill, in a book that she wrote about the ordeal she and her husband went through following Morgan's death.

"

Living requires courage. Do not just bob along on the surface near the shore afraid. Most of us live below our spiritual capacity. Dad and I have been pushed into deep waters and choose to be brave and to swim. Knowing that we are here for a purpose, we choose to show up and try to live at the highest level. This is what I learned from you Morgan and from the wisdom in these crashing waves and I just really think that's a beautiful thought for all of us to live by.

Jill Harrington wrote this book as a compilation of her journal entries from after Morgan's death. It was written together with one of Morgan's teachers.

"

After speaking with Jill she sent me a book that she had written which really was a compilation of her journal entries through much of this ordeal and it was written together with one of Morgan's teachers and there was this passage that she talked about in the years following Morgan's death that they had been in the beach and they used that as their place to heal and recover and there is a piece of it that she wrote directly to Morgan.

She wrote to her daughter, Living requires courage. Do not just bob along on the surface near the shore afraid. Most of us live below our spiritual capacity.

Dad and I have been pushed into deep waters and choose to be brave and to swim. Knowing that we are here for a purpose, we choose to show up and try to live at the highest level.

This is what I learned from you Morgan and from the wisdom in these crashing waves and I just really think that's a beautiful thought for all of us to live by.
