Rots in de branding would translate to 'Rock in the waves', you know, one of those rocks where all waves break on, water splashing all around it, the rock untouched, not in any way thinking it should move to make room for the waves.
It's a saying in Dutch that you would use to refer to a person you can lean upon, someone that would always be there, if you almost fall down he or she will keep you upright.
Although no waves are splashing in this shot, it was the first thing I thought of when I took this photo of the shadow of my (seven years, going to eight) boyfriend who has been with me through thick and thin - things have been really hard, especially the last three years, but he didn't plan on moving an inch, and I both physically and mentally have been able to lean upon him.
He's that, for me: my 'rots in de branding'.
I sincerely hope you have one of those rocks too. And can be one for others.
I can see too much people on water..
Well, this looks like fun!
@guyfawkes4-20!!! You're alive! I missed you! Coming back on Steem for a bit to FOMO on the SteemFest posts?
Yes, you can say both. See you back in 4 - 6 months! :)

Thanks :D
This is so beautiful, @soyrosa. You are very lucky - and great picture, by the way!
Thanks @honeydue! I certainly am lucky <3 Finding 'a good one' isn't a given :-)
I like this saying @soyrosa and it's nice to have such a person in your life,when you can. And in my life I actually have an actual rock as well, a large boulder really, here in our shore that we call the 'spitting rock' as the water has split it over the years cleaving it open. Thus,when the tide is right and the wave hits the back from the front it looks to be 'spitting'. It's nice to see it out there on the shore in the water, rain or shine, heat or frozen Winter. We need more people like that.
<3 Splitting rock, I totally know what kind you mean! I love them as the effect of the water splashing around them is very very epic. Glad to hear you have a rock in your life as well <3
