Sometimes life hands you little gifts. Just a day or so ago I discovered a great, new (to me) blog with the absolutely delicious title Time Rescuer. I signed up for the free newsletter, and today this lovely poem landed in my inbox (complete with a photo of a cat – how did she know I’m a cat person?)
Serendipity! As I leap off into the abyss and wrestle with self-doubt, I treasure word-gems like this to keep me moving forward.
Enjoy!

Lean In
Standing on the edge
The precipice of change
Anticipation vibrates
Reaching out to touch
The misty veil of old
Becoming new
Lean in
Comfort and familiar
Whispers safety behind
Uncertainty, unknown
Beckons from beyond
One step, one moment
And all the world can change
Lean in
Let go and fall
Feel the wind rise up
Lift me out of darkness
Arms reach out and become
Wings that catch the wind
As I soar above
Lean in
Lean into life
Into uncertainty and fear
Reach out, into and through
The misty veil of doubt
To find the space between
Where magic lives
