It was overwhelming, as I somehow knew it would be. Reaching one step higher towards my dreams has led me into a void of uncertainty and peril. The more steps I climb, the harder it gets, and the peak of the mountain is still miles away. These new obstacles life has thrown at me are different than those before, more complex and they require a greater deal of patience and subtlety. And as I navigate no-mans land, I feel nervous, anxious, terrified really. It almost feels as if I managed to find the strength to march towards my dreams, but lack the resolve to not only talk the talk, but actually walk the walk. For if one comes so far, a simple misstep could ruin it all, and one fleeting moment may change all that I am and more.
It is life, I think, to watch the stars.
