Day Five

Today the sky is gray

and the wind bites at my cheeks

Even the birds have not ventured out

I take wisdom in that

Remembering 

that I do not have to make progress

every day

Today, I can go back inside

and rest

Day Four

Doubt creeps in

What if I am

going the wrong way?

Should I 

Keep going?

Go left? Or right?

Turn back?

Pause

Breathe

Look around

Simply choose

There are no wrong roads.

DAY THREE

Take two steps

Pause.

Look behind

See the footprints

already in your wake

A path begun.

Look ahead

You are on your way

Day Two

One step

Don't think

Just step

You're in

Next step

Don't think

Just step

Path begins

(Breathe in, Breathe out)

First Day

First light

New day

First day

New year

First breath

Fresh hope

Breath in

Breath out
