Far Beyond Fear
Category:Collaboration,Community,Connections,Emotions,Opportunity,PoemLook far to overcome fear
And go far.
Fear shrinks our horizons,
Both in time and distance.
We become consumed
By the moment
And by what’s near us.
We lose perspective on
What’s ahead
And what’s in the world
Around us.
We need to
Expand our horizons.
If we look far enough ahead
We will see really big opportunities
If we look far enough around,
We will see many people who can help us
Achieve those opportunities
We’re not alone.
To look far
We need to look within.
Within, we will find
What we need.
We all have
A hunger for impact.
We all want to make a difference,
A big difference.
That will drive us to look far
And move far beyond our fear.
