Threshold
I was at a threshold
That held me captive for a long time
I gathered the courage from somewhere
To take the first step into the unknowable (for how can we really know what will happen?)
Maybe I knew that there would be support from somewhere
But I was still scared
Oh what relief and joy to know I have it in me
To move beyond fear
To love life enough to try
To grow into more of the person I am striving to be
Thanks to all those people in the world who have kind thoughts towards me
Who support me in any way
The hurdle was small in reality
But it is a huge battle I have won

A standing ovation Stacey. It is no small hurdle. I know how hard it is to step out of the opened cage door. Well done darling and we are all here for you as you walk a road that is becoming more travelled.
Thanks Heather for your comments. :-}
SEED: “To love life enough to try”
“To love life is to live life,”
or so I read in my youth;
and each day is a threshold
through which one might step in spirit –
to smile inwardly
as you dance in the market,
frolic in walled gardens
and sing to the gladrag crowd.
Some will see your secret mirth,
and wave Nemaste’
