Cliffside
Today I was thinking of that old saying "if everyone told you to jump off a cliff, would you do it?"
Well imagine standing at that cliff with all those people around you. Only they have you harnessed up with saftey equipment, there's a big cushion below waiting to catch your fall, and they'll be down there waiting for you when you land. Walking to the edge you stop, peer over, and look down. What you see is a huge canyon and at the bottom that big cushion, only it looks tiny because it's such a far way down.
Even with all the safety nets around, the thought of jumping off that cliff is still ultimately terrifying - even if you know that you'll be better off for it.
That's exactly how I feel these days. Love to elaborate but can't yet.
