Step Out of Your Boat…

Dr Molly’s poem motivates us to expand beyond our comfort zones, take risks, and experience new things for growth—an exclusive for Independence Day, in Different Truths.

Step out of
         your boat
to walk
     over the waves...
 
our comfort
         zones
can be
            cosy
but, how
            long?
we need
        go beyond
the perceived
       perceptions
to be
       exceptional
exploring
      the seemingly
not seen
        but preferably
ignored,
         to safeguard
your 
       comfort zone.
 
       how long
can we be
             safe?
 
it's a fleeting 
              shore.
this immanent,
             uncertain
enigma of 
                 life
       stretching
somewhere
           beyond...
 
be it as
          float free
energy
         dissipated,
or, converged
           into one
in the
      ad infinitum.
 
going beyond
           matters,
in perception,
          practice...
 
stretch out
       your hand
the save
          the needy
lend your
          voice to
the voiceless
      with kindness
writ large...

Step out of
         your boat
to walk
   over the waves...
