Leap of Faith

This world is full of people who are too afraid of taking chances. Everyday opportunities pass them by, and they aren't courageous enough to reach out and snatch them from the air. These are the things that they will think about for the rest of their lives, the ghosts that will refuse to go away, residing in the darkest corners of their minds, whispering ideas, situations, of what could have happened, if only they'd been brave enough at the time to do what perhaps they should have.

We all make mistakes, that's inevitable. They're what help us to grow and learn, and live, but becoming too timid causes us to lose things that we could have possessed. You don't have to know everything before you try something new, you don't always have to think about the consequences. It's not about analysing every situation before taking action, it's about trusting intuition.

So next time the opportunity arises, where the chasm between where you are and where could be becomes ever wider, whisper a prayer to the breeze, or clutch tighter that crucifix, your symbol of hope, or take a moment to touch that inner ocean of calm within you, then......leap!

You'll never know what you could've had if you never tried at least once to attain it.
