NO TURNING BACK


As terrifying as it may be
Sometimes the best thing in the world
That can happen to us
Is for the cage door to slam shut

When the door closes on yesterday
We must bring our energies to today
When we can’t go back
Then we’re forced to go forward
Not turning back

Without safety of the cage
Tempting us to reverse course
We must bring all that we are our creativity
Resiliency, innovation and resourcefulness
To our new jungle

One of the best things that
Ever happened to the children of Israel
Was when God closed the Red Sea
After triumphant exodus out of Egypt
The water opened before them so that could escape

But it also closed behind them
Preventing them from returning
And later it takes them forty years
It took them to reach the promise land
When there is no turning back
Your instincts will lead you forward
