ever notice

from my tree bridge

ever notice about holding on
that you're less secure
less sure-footed
when you hold on.

by yourself,
on your own
foot in front of foot
you're almost there,
just walking.

once the thought comes in -
"hold on"
then,
a little doubt enters,
a little shakey-ness.

so just walk,
foot after foot
no reach out
there you are,
no doubt

  1. light control -- flexible, not stiff, ready for what may happen. a good approach...

  2. that sounds good and smart. when i'm too stiff, I feel it, not strong and unable to cope or handle what may happen. love!
