Leap

Last year I realized that time passes by way too quickly and life is too short to be afraid. To be scared to do things that one is really passionate about. Alright, I kind of knew that fact long before, but not until that abrupt change, had I absorbed the knowledge entirely. Did it take me longer than other people to “mature,” or should I say, to become more "daring"? Did I truly become more courageous? Was this my wake up call to act and stop being afraid?

I had settled for “less” for far too long, undervaluing my potential, myself. I had settled for this temporary sense of “safety” that can disappear in an instance anyway. I never truly dared to leap and take the chance and perhaps, one could argue that I had wasted a good amount of time. But, I guess, I believe that things do happen for a reason. Is that a silly belief? Maybe. But the way that things have been going and turning out lately, makes the idea of pure coincidence more silly than the possibility that things happen for a reason. Maybe that “reason” is the “higher power,” maybe that reason is the power of our own minds, our subconscious. Anyhow, it is quite interesting how some things in life evolve.



So, I have taken the leap. I have decided to move onto better things, without having anything “better” secured. Some would say it’s not a very wise thing to do, some might think it’s stupid, but perhaps some would say that it’s a great thing to do. Good, or bad, I did make that decision and I have yet to see whether it will bring any success, positive results. So far, things have been progressing rather slowly, if I can call it a progress. So far, everything is in the open. No security, just hopes, beliefs and my attempt at success. The time is passing. But, so far, so good.
