I shouldn't even write here in order not to sabotage the momentum of the very well performing video, but actions speak louder then words, so I guess I write.
In life we all get to that cliff where we look out and don't know what's ahead. It means stepping off of solid ground that we can see and feel into an unknown. We may come to the edge of this cliff numerous times in our lives, look over the edge and actually maybe even like what we see but the action of actually stepping forward, into the unknown scares us back to the solid ground we know so well.
And again we want what's over that cliff, so we run up to the edge again and after looking at it and wanting it again we may put a toe over maybe more then a toe but then again we back away to to the safety of the known.
But then after time, sometimes a short time, but usually a long, sometimes a very long time, we get up the courage, the resolve, the hope and promise for what lies ahead and we go back to that vauted edge that we both fear and desire at the same time and then we step forward.
The unknown, the cliff, the edge, the promise, the queasiness, it's all there.
But somehow we really know that our lives are not really fully lived unless we do it.
Today I stepped over the cliff. It was long coming and much needed. The cliffs in our lives need not be feared just recognized as an important part of being human.
Have A Wonderful Day or Night Fans,
