Musings

Sometimes we have to do what scares us. Sometimes we have to break out of the box, go beyond our comfort zone.

Bend.

Try.

Stretch.

We need to let people in, let people go. We need to open up and trust. Have a little faith. Exhale.

Believe.

Hope.

Extend.

I’ve had some wonderful people in my life, and some not so wonderful people, too. But I’m lucky enough to maybe get a second chance with someone I’ve missed for a very long time. I could sit back and count all the reasons why this might not work; why this might be a very bad idea. Or I can go for it and see what happens. It’s not in my nature to be reckless when it comes to people. I’d prefer to hang back where it’s safe. But sometimes, the greatest reward can only be achieved by taking a chance.

So I will. Cautiously.
