Bridges and Thresholds

“Praise the bridge that carried you over.” – George Colman

“May I have the courage today To live the life that I would love, To postpone my dream no longer But do at last what I came here for And waste my heart on fear no more.”― John O’Donohue, To Bless the Space Between Us: A Book of Invocations and Blessings

Before and after.
And all of the in between time, gone often unnoticed.
Past, present, future.
Bridges and thresholds.
Some a step, some many steps to cross the river, the chasm.
Move forward, carry on, not to remain nor return.
Entering new and unfamiliar roads.
Waste my heart on fear no more.

“Don’t be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps.” – David Lloyd George
