Step Forward!

We all have experienced times in our lives when moving forward becomes a challenge. Fears, doubts, blame, shame, anger, sadness and sometimes complacency hold us back. We become stale, and even start stinking like the standing water. Just a little step forward adds life to our lives and we must not stop not matter what! It is important to visualize your dream and go for it! As Lao Tzu said, The Journey of Thousand Miles begins with One Step! 

Every morning, start afresh,
Take a deep breath, step forward!

Even when the day is heavy as rock,
Pull all your strength, step forward!

If there seems to be no path ahead,
Take the leap of faith, step forward!

Before fear consumes all the courage,
Position yourself, step forward!

When no other hand pulls you,
Hold on to hope, step forward!

In the midst of confusion 'n' chaos,
Focus on your own next step forward!

Confidence will follow surely,
With faltering feet, step forward!

The destination may be far way, 
It is closer with every step forward!

They may say you’re not part of them,
Embrace your uniqueness, step forward! 

Shame, guilt, sadness, or anger,
Girl, put on your lipstick, step forward!

Your smile might be wet in tears,
Wear it anyways, step forward!

No matter how tired you might feel,
Tap in the last bit of  energy, step forward!

When nothing seems to work,
Grab more grace from above step forward!
