 Calling the ones with their backs turned, those looking towards the future, the ones refusing to glance left or right, refusing to link hands with those on the same journey.
And behind you, what of those left behind? The ones who cannot walk so fast, the ones who have responsibilities, the sick, the old, the ones who have run out of faith - in themselves and in the wider world, what of them? Yes you will walk ahead, but the further you walk the nearer you will be to catching up on those you left behind. For the walk we do is circular, none of it is new ground, just century upon century, generation upon generation of worn footprints. Instead take smaller steps, look around, enjoy the journey, and embrace those who share it whether they be on the same path or one running parallel. If you don't then be prepared to catch up with yourself - walking alone behind the rest. |
