First Steps

Often it's the first steps that are the most terrifying.
We stand on the edge. Petrified. Excited. Nervous.
We may have by-standers cheering us on, encouraging us or urging us to hurry up and get on with it.
At times we can't do it - we turn around and go back down the ladder, tail between our legs.
But there is that moment when standing on the edge won't cut it and when turning around is not an option.
Something clicks - and we JUMP.
No turning back.

And after that first jump - we just want to keep jumping.


It gets easier and more exhilarating.

But those first steps ...
every adventure starts with a first step.
We're getting ready to take some first steps. We're standing on the edge - nervous and hopeful ready to JUMP!
Looking forward to the next adventure.
