Give it a try and do something new

Give it a try

What’s easy, safe and comfortable…

-is not always the best way to go.

Sometimes there need to be some risk taken,

Reaching beyond our capacity,

Stretching forward to try something new.

It may be the most uncomfortable,

Unwanted and frightening situation,

But if you don’t test the water

You may miss out on so much in life.

You may think it hard and need someone

to root you on, someone to guide you along.

I can’t promise you will find one

But I can say that you have one already,

It is inside of you,

You are your own personal cheerleader.

So go for the dive

And find a new and exciting life waiting.
