Thriving Thursdays: What if I Fall – 1 (Guest Post by Teagan Riordain Geneviene)

What if I fall?

I strive to be positive, otherwise I can’t thrive.  However, the ugly head of reality continually rears up in my face.  So I know that many times I’m actually going to fall.  But no matter how many times — or how hard I fall, the only choice is to drag myself back up and start climbing again.

Of course my self-talk takes a negative turn after a fall, and I ask myself
“What if I fall again?”

Then on the breeze I hear the faintest whisper… “But what if you fly?”

“There is freedom waiting for you,

On the breezes of the sky,

And you ask “What if I fall?”

Oh but my darling,

What if you fly?”

― Erin Hanson

    • Always happy to oblige there, John.
      I used to do these posts weekly at LinkedIn, but they started being lost and anything but “linked.” So I have huge gratitude to Chris for letting me visit the tree-house each month. (He offered weekly, but monthly is working well for me.) Have a thriving, hug-filled Thursday.

    • Thank you dear Olga! The first time I read that poem I had goosebumps. As you know, I need to listen to those words myself, and get out there and *fly*… But I often say that when I write motivational posts, I’m encouraging myself as much as anyone else. Have a thriving, hug-filled Thursday.
