"One step at a time is all it takes to get you there."
Emily Dickinson
We have read all of the poems about placing one foot in front of the other and not one screams, "Turn around and run!" The need to stay the course surely is obvious, and yet, too frequently, we find ourselves back tracking, vulnerable to repeating mistakes. We may lie to ourselves, saying we are turning around for the sake of others.
Although looking ahead may appear to be extremely intimidating, we can take one step at a time slowly choosing authentic inspiration. We need to be in touch with our lovely selves, no matter how minutely. In order to create healthy patterns, we must make careful choices that contribute to our dreams and desires.
We can establish appropriate support by carefully arranging boundaries and continuously surveying our inner needs. When we can embrace the self just as it is, there are no illusions and clarity directs us on our way. As we learn to align our physical, mental and spiritual aspirations, we can carefully place our feet in the appropriate direction.
