What Would U Do If U Were Not Afraid?

The Journey⁣
One day you finally knew⁣
what you had to do, and began,⁣
though the voices around you⁣
kept shouting⁣
their bad advice–⁣
though the whole house⁣
began to tremble⁣
and you felt the old tug⁣
at your ankles.⁣
“Mend my life!”⁣
each voice cried.⁣
But you didn’t stop.⁣
You knew what you had to do,⁣
though the wind pried⁣
with its stiff fingers⁣
at the very foundations,⁣
though their melancholy⁣
was terrible.⁣
It was already late⁣
enough, and a wild night,⁣
and the road full of fallen⁣
branches and stones.⁣
But little by little,⁣
as you left their voices behind,⁣
the stars began to burn⁣
through the sheets of clouds,⁣
and there was a new voice⁣
which you slowly⁣
recognized as your own,⁣
that kept you company⁣
as you strode deeper and deeper⁣
into the world,⁣
determined to do⁣
the only thing you could do–⁣
determined to save⁣
the only life you could save.⁣ ~Mary Oliver⁣
⁣
What would you do if you were not afraid?⁣
Take one baby step towards it today⁣
Not quite a faith leap⁣
more like a tiny step ⁣
like writing down what u ⁣
WOULD DO if u were not afraid⁣
in detail⁣
⁣
Then tomorrow, ⁣
maybe u’ll tell someone in detail⁣
& the day after that⁣
maybe you do a budget⁣
& the day after that⁣
u’ll put $5 dollars ⁣
towards it in a dream jar⁣
⁣
u manifest like a motherfucker ⁣
in teeny, tiny steps every day⁣
365 days of tiny steps ⁣
become a faith leap⁣
