Courage to Grow

You know what it’s like
That thought of “What if?”
The desire to be better
Or more
Or different.

We want to grow.

Our world
Balancing on a pinhead
Bigger than ever
Always ready to topple

But we’re spinning.
Spinning at the top.

Round and round.

Dizzy, or seeing in all directions?

What direction to go?
Which way to grow?

We want to be, over there.

Grow beyond.

Take it past the centre
To the limits.

Away from the centre.

Gravity attracts...
You know your pull.

Go to them. 
To others.
To fine things.

Feel the pull.
The gravity of new
Of change
Of growth
Of better.

Have courage to grow. 
Reach out.

Keep spinning.
Keep growing.

Celebrate.
The new you.

The Fine Thing
That was there...all along.

Gravitate, towards your life purpose.
