The
jetty lies before you in a blur
With waves caressing every stone
You feel your timid heart stir
You reach for the unknown
You
have waited so long for this moment
Your fear has finally abated
You feel as if you own it
Your heart is so elated
Lifting
your foot, you take a step
And then you take another
On your own and with no help
Because you need no other
Courage
swells within your chest
Confidence becomes your friend
To reach the end is your accomplished quest
From there your life can begin

This
page is dedicated to every person who has stood
at the foot of their own person jetty with weak
knees and faint heart, while wondering what
steps they should take to accomplish their
goals. It is also for those who have been
given reasons to doubt their own self-worth but
knew in the back of their mind that they were
worthy.
To
you, I say... Take that first step, and then
take another and another while side-stepping the
jagged edges, for they will be there. Put your
shoulder to the winds, face the storm and
PUSH! You'll get there!
