How Far Can You Go?


It's a little scary navigating in uncharted waters.  That's where I am at this moment in time.  It's like walking backwards while holding on to string of rubber bands.  You wonder, "what happens if the person on the other side lets go first or if one of the rubber bands snaps?"  The choice to keep advancing, to keep stretching, is the only option.  Why?  Because that's what life is all about.  I know what it's like to walk into a classroom after recess covered in red welts and I'm the first one to tell you I wouldn't trade that memory or any other memory because facing fear is what helps me to reach distant shores where few choose to sail.  Have a great day.  And don't worry about the welts.  They heal fine.
