Turn the page

Some fruit turns sour
if not picked when ripe

Some boats set sail
in the middle of the night

Some opportunities
disappear out of sight

We are bound by our decisions
whether wrong or right

...

But now,
After breaths deep have been exhaled
After hair pulled has been discarded
After options reviewed and fantasies shattered,
Only now can we turn the page.
Turn to the future, the reality of what can be...and as a result, will be.

Each day we move closer to who we are, sit more comfortably in our skin, walk upright with dedication to the pull of certainty.
