Not a Porcelain Doll

Take that leap and let yourself fall Soul may be fragile but you're not a porcelain doll You'll never know what could be without answering an opportunity that does call Why sit about and ponder what if and fill yourself with regret over the long haul? Sure some opportunities taken end badly and leave one feeling small There will be other ones that arise that will build you up tall The unknown can be scary but sometimes well worth the fall What's the worst that can happen? Surely you'll bounce back, you're not a porcelain doll

As we go through life its best to take a few risks at least we tried. Our lives won't have to many regrets. Tom.

Well done! Reminds me of my own motto, I'd rather regret something I did than something I didn't do ;) Great write Melissa. xomo
