Step Out Into the Darkness of Night

You are not your past. You are the wisdom derived from its lessons. The courage removed from its trials. And the hurt, that hurt that was perhaps at one point the only thing you felt. It's not your reason to shrink into yourself. It's your reason to step back out. To say to the universe I have the strength to again dance with the unknown. Step out into the world again. This is what it means to live.
