big steps require leaps when you have short legs | by Gillian
I can’t sleep. Yet. I’m looking forward to Fritz getting here.
Generally speaking, when a risk I’ve taken has provided me with problems I have overcome them (and often begun more) with taking even bigger risks. Arguably, this has a lot to do with being an adult. The fun in being an adult is having the free will and ability to jump really really high and fall flat on your face. When your nose bleeds from the crash, nobody is there to chastise you, and nobody is there to clean the wound. It’s glorious.
I’m just glad this dive is over. I’m thankful to have learned to not approach life with “who cares? what’s the worst that can happen?” Perhaps one should already care and know, and instead be wondering, “what’s the best that can happen?”
I’m excited to dive back into the mess tomorrow with longer plastic gloves and new masks.
