There’s a beauty in walking away
Sunday, September 6th, 2009I was just listening to a song by Marie Digby with that title, and I really liked her lyrics. The song is basically about new beginnings, and how certain chapters have to be closed before new ones can be written. Here’s a snippet of it:
It’s never quite simple, it’s never that safe
It never seems perfect until it’s too late
It’s never the right time to find a new way
There’s an answer in the sound of a train
There is wisdom past the bridge on the bay
There’s a lifetime through the fog and the rain
There’s a beauty in walking away
It definitely takes courage to walk away. To walk away from a job, from the norm, from friendships. But sometimes that is what we have to do to move on, and I think we all could benefit by doing a little more ‘walking away’ in our lives. And if your shoes weren’t made for walking, my suggestion is that you walk away from them and get a new pair.
