When you know that you must make a change
It’s inevitable, nothing stays static
Yet you’re hanging on to the edge of the cliff, hanging on for dear life
And your fear keeps you from letting go and moving on
When you see the future laid out at the end of the drop
And you know that once you start down the path, you’ll feel better
And you know that it absolutely must happen
And should
But you don’t let go
You don’t because it feels like a death.
You don’t because it feels like giving up or giving in.
It feels like a loss of control.
Like a loss of yourself.
Until the pain becomes unbearable.
So, when you let go, know that the journey
Is just beginning
And don’t forget to laugh
On the way down.
