Every human being ever lived would have faced this broken bridge.
At this juncture one must embrace one of the three most powerful emotions of mankind.
The choice lies between fear of falling into the Abyss, love towards your home,and the faith to take the leap.The worst is the fear,because it is the most difficult one to admit to oneself.
It won’t let you return back to home giving up the quest.Everyday you would stand on the ledge saying to yourself you can make the leap, but the fear won’t let you.You would say “today is not a good day, maybe tomorrow”.You would spend the day trying to find the courage to do it the next day.But you will never find it as it is not courage that makes the jump but it is the faith,the belief that you deserve to make it, that does it.That is why it is called the Giant Leap of Faith.Whom you put it in, is up to each and every one.I for one always put it in God.
Since you do not seek faith but courage, you will never find faith.You will spend the rest of your life contemplating the life you could have had if you had made the jump and saying I reached this far,how could I let go.
The most diificult to have is faith.Because it cannot be earned,bought or felt.You would know that you have it when you belive you have it.Then how do you get it.It has to be a gift from one to another.because science or maths cannot explain it.It is not reasonable.More often you would doubt it.But if it is a gift,from someone dearer to us we would hold on to it for the simple fact that it is a gift.The gift should produce awe and wonder in you then only shall you truely explore it.If you have faith,you will believe that you can make it and you will.
The most peaceful is the love for your home.And it will always be justified by the lovely memories you have with your loved ones.Ever you will wonder what would have happened if you would have jumped.That question alone will remain your only unrest in life.Beware,never tell yourself that you gave up the jump for your loved one.because one day they may leave you behind.The truth is that you gave up the jump because you wanted to be with them.And it was for your own happiness that you returned home
