Diving In

“There comes a moment when the ledge is no longer safe, and the only way forward is to fall into your own becoming.”

Standing at the edge of the Seven Sacred Pools of Maui, and leaping.

Water teaches · p. 133

Courage is not the absence of fear ~ it is the moment your soul refuses to let you stay frozen one moment longer. And sometimes the bravest thing you will ever do is climb back up and jump again.
