I've made decent progress on my list of actions to push off the river bank. On some items, my body and inner tube said "adios!" to dry land and are ready for my Becky Thatcher-like adventure. But my big toe still is anchored into terra firma. It's longing for adventure, but isn't ready to just heave-ho with a giant shove.
Yesterday, I had a lovely and long overdue chat with my dear friend Laura. She spoke directly to my big toe (not literally, I mean we were on the phone and obviously my phone doesn't have ears). Her gentle, but inviting and supportive words told my toe directly just how incredible it is to engage in the current.
I accept that I'm not ready to give dry land a giant shove. But what if my big toe just let go....? THAT I can handle!

Methinks your big toe must be getting tired from all that hanging on...
;-)
It's worth it to thank your big toe for trying to keep you safe and cozy in the known world. And, it's worth it to let it rest now. The current feels soooo gooooood!
xoxo!
