on the count of three

we are all scared of it: The unknown.
rightly so, because it has the power to uproot--to heave us in an opposite direction while simultaneously preparing us a path.
some of us seek it.
as if to have climbed to the cliff's top and then blindly jumped
diving into the abyss that is this. 
adrenaline whore or just your desperate attempt to have the wind knocked out of you.
Self inflicted, that is.


we are all intimidated by it:  Change.
possibly because, as creatures of habit, it is unnerving.
slightly unpleasant.
simplicity begs for you to stay, do away with new goals and attempts of making an identity.
satisfaction tempts you to "find the best" of your mundane depression.
then imagination pleads with you to reconsider.
what if the ice cold water feet below your feet is the shock of safety.
