In the beginning
trepidation, excitement
so much to look forward to
I will begin
today
I will step
into a world
swirling with chance and choice
a broken world full of hope
Anything can happen
that is the fear and the wonder
anything can happen

In Other Words 
Exactly that – the fear, the leap into the unknown, and yet… how exciting and freeing!
