Bold and fearless...

It's time to grow up. We need to take responsibility for what we have done. No more hiding, no more games, just the truth. I know it's hard. But if we do it together I'm sure we'll make it. Because for me, becoming an adult means realising that these ties that bind us to one another aren't a burden, they're a gift. We don't form them easily. Especially in this world, full of people who seem to care only about themselves. When was the last time you did something selfless, out of compasion, to simply help another person feel better about their life, about their gift, about the world they created?

It's time to jump. But I don't want to do it alone, not anymore. The bonds that connect us, will pull you down with me, so you can either break them or give in and jump with me and take that leap of faith. As we fall, we won't care what happens when we hit the bottom. All we'll be thinking about is how amazing it feels to finally be free of the past. It's time. I can feel it in my gut. Take my hand and on the count of three we jump. One... Two... Three...
