Dabble and Splash

This is my endlessly recurrent temptation: to go down to that Sea (I think St. John of the Cross called God a sea) and there never dive nor swim nor float, but only dabble and splash, careful not to get out of my depth and holding on the lifeline which connects me with my things temporal.

-C. S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
