The recurring whisper

I think about my personal legend… a lot. What is the reoccurring whisper I hear in my heart, It says, Take the risk, see the world, You’ll figure the rest out, Take the leap, Take the step. So I ponder. Is what I’m working on significant to my soul, Or is it significant to me in relation to the effect it has on others, Could it come with me and be apart of my journey, Growing as I do, Or is it what I latch onto to excuse myself from the risk I am afraid of, What do I fear? These are the real questions, An old soul I already am, Can I get much older, What do I get if I wait much longer, Am I waiting for something? Ideal circumstance? Is this an act of cowardice? Or is cowardice stepping away from the commitment I have already made, One thing is for sure, No matter what happens the next step is to leave. It’s to pack a bag and go, We’ve been putting our body through training for a reason, Every action has a purpose and there is no value to strength unused, Other than one, Security, How foolish of me to believe security exists. I shall die like all before me, How they built their walls, Erected their shrines, And preached their greatness, All to return to the earth from which they came, Now if there name is mentioned it does no more than whittle in the wind, Until that too is forgotten. Security is folly. Do not look for it, You will win and you will lose as long as you live, And if you choose the life of security, Know you are the looser because just like the money you chase your life faces inflation year on year and the time spent is what is decreasing. Yet the value of what remains increases ONLY in It’s value to you.
