Time for a change of scenery
Spent too long in isolation
Digesting ideas is one thing
But action is the point of creation

Prepared to lose everything
As I move towards positive goals
I shall adopt the frame of mind
Required for walking over hot coals

Recognition of downward spirals
Brings decisions to a head
Some things need to be done
Or else we’d be better of dead

Shedding old skins make a life
Never shirk from heartfelt change
The new you will be familiar
Present one will become strange

Embrace the fear of failure
Engulf it in the expansiveness of love
You will be glad of the motivation
When your future push comes to shove

Accept any invitations to growth
Picture a chick fighting to hatch
It knows a greater world lays outside
Even though there may be a catch

Opportunities are gifts of learning

Without them we would fade away
We live in a world of contrast
There will always be shades of grey

I will focus on the bigger picture
But take each day at a time
Everyone knows to conquer a mountain
You first need the will to climb

As I prepare to leave my cosy plateau
I look forward in anticipation
For at the end of the day when I die
Even that will just be a different sensation

Cheers!
