It's Time


It’s time

It's time to get a little crazy.

It's time to not play it safe.

It's time to love again, no matter what scars your heart holds.

It's time to believe, despite the fact that the last time you did, you ended up betrayed.

It's time to stand upon the feet you were given and find some peace in the rain.

It's time.

It's time to move.

It's time to risk again, to walk into fear with nothing but a pocketful of faith and your steely, steely eyes.

It's time to tell yourself that you belong, so what's all the fuss about.

It's time to fly though your wings are still wet.

It's time.

It's time to update your resume with a line about how great you do the thing you do that you were put here to do when you do it.

It's time to finally understand that everything is within your reach if you'd just stick out your hand.

It's time to show us how to make it better.

It's time.

It's really, truly, simply time.

So, if it is, and if we know exactly what we need to do to get started, what's stopping us?

Is it fear?

Or is it the tangy taste of anticipation?

No matter, because we have a responsibility, you and I.

To begin.

And there's no time like the present.

Because it's time.
