And now, even in this need for change I hesitate with the fear of a child but yet, I leap and although the fall may not be broken I take the chance. I take the chance as a prayer escapes my lips that I be caught, and if not then broken and bloody as I might be I'll get back up, continually; determined in this desire to not just survive but rather, to experience life... to live. {thanks to Nicole for the inspiration} |

Yes!! You wrap your courage and passion and beauty into this just right. I've stood at many of those ledges myself. Some days are harder to jump than others. Here's to taking the leap... A great write  ~alyssa Hupomeno. |

Donna This is gonna sound cliche', but there is no ledge that can conquer you. You may free fall and crash, but you are stronger than the landing. A |
