Before you leap,
stop and think.
Before you leap
off the brink.
Before you leap,
feel the flow
That guides you
where to go.

Before you shout,
hesitate.
Before you shout;
before you break.
Before you shout,
feel the calm
That urges you
to just move on.

Before you try,
you must know why.
Before you try,
to breach the sky.
Before you try, k
now your truth
That passes up
the ‘try’ for ‘do.’

Nothing is more painful than realizing he meant everything to you, but you meant nothing to him. (Unknown)
