To leap headfirst into the tumultuous sea of consequence or to simply walk on by knowing that you were either too afraid or too wise to jump.

Staring Over a Cliff
Throughout our lives we find ourselves at the edge of many metaphorical cliffs. Whether we look before we leap or not will differ from person to person and each given situation. But there are some cliffs that we come to that will cause even the most reckless person to pause, potentially life changing moments. And when the choice is yours what will you decide? To leap headfirst into the tumultuous sea of consequence or to simply walk on by knowing that you were either too afraid or too wise to jump. Unfortunately, the world has a habit of complicating even the most obvious decisions. You may hesitate on the cliff if you look below and see what seem to be happy, beautiful, people beckoning you to join their gaiety. But after jumping you realize that they and now you are all trapped in a pit to be drowned when the tide comes in. Such decisions are not to be made lightly, but take care not to remain indecisive or the edge may crumble underneath you dumping you unceremoniously into the frothy abyss. At the end of the day, your reward is how you feel about yourself. Will you say, "I looked temptation in the eye and turned away", or will you say, "I was just one sip away from being perfect?"
