I 'll Carry You, You'll Carry Me (Orange Frogs). Photograph- Organic (unretouched), 10.19.09
Until One is committed, there is hesitancy.
the chance to draw back
always ineffectiveness.
Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation)
there is one elementary truth
the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and endless plans:
THAT THE MOMENT ONE DEFINITELY COMMITS ONESELF,
THEN PROVIDENCE MOVES TOO.
All sort of things occur to help one
that would never otherwise have occurred.
A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents
and meetings and material assistance,
which no man could have dreamed would come his way.
Whatever you can do or dream you can,
begin it.
Boldness has genius,power and magic in it.
Begin it now.
Goethe
Thank you Barbara , for giving me this quote, so many years ago.

Oh thank you for this post, Miti! I really needed to hear these wise words right now. Sometimes when you take a big leap to follow your dreams, you hit bumps along the way (of course) and some days you just might feel like jumping ship. Thank you for the reminder to keep going, to keep dreaming! Beautiful!
