Don’t wait, take the plunge.
Hold your nose and jump in.
How else will you ever know if it is too soon or too late?
If you will sink or swim?
Where will the answers come from and when, if not now?
I have waited before,
Have stepped back from the edge
Just in case I was wrong.
But now, at this time in my life, there is no wrong, there is only what will work now,
Or more accurately, what I will make work now, for in this present moment, anything is possible.
And if I should get tired of swimming and start to sink, I can just put my feet down and ground them in the earth.
It is never too late because it is always now.
So stay with me in this present moment where there is no room for fear,
Trust me, take my hand and take the plung,
The water’s fine!
We are so much alike! I wrote a poem at about the same time, about taking the risk! Jumping in. Better to jump in, than to sit by the edge wondering forever what it would have been like to feel it. xo

Always better to jump in and swim deep down instead of remaining on the edge and pondering where life will take you. Lovely and beautiful post.
