I don’t know what’s on the other side of the bridge. I have to cross it to find out. But fear holds me back. There is fear in the unknown, in the things I can not see. Inside, my heart has so many questions.
I don’t know what lies ahead. There are days I feel lost. There are days I take two steps forward and one step back. But everything I desire is on the other side of the bridge, on the other of fear. There is beauty in the unknown, in the things I can not see.
So why am I still standing here? Is a life of regret worth it? I looked at a picture of me from 2 years ago, how different I’ve become. There might even be a wrinkle. Back then I said “I’ll wait”, I kept saying, “one day I’ll travel, one day I’ll …”. Two years later, and time just escaped me. I know a life full of regrets is no life at all.
It frightens me even more to not cross this bridge because on the other side is my future. And I know that it may look different but I know full well it is good. I don’t want to regret this life.
