Back and Forth

Should I do it? It looks fun. But my gut tells me not to. Why does this decision elude me!? Should I do it? I'll just do it-NOPE! I don't want to! It's scary! But it also looks fun! I should just leave. I start to leave, but then say to myself, is this really what you want to do? Be a wimp, just because you're nervous? Yes, sometimes following your gut is the best decision, but you have to take risks to get what you want. I climb back up. I close my eyes, take a deep breath and jump off the 3-foot-high diving board.

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re bowing down to him.

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re hopeless.

     

    Here, take my hand.
