What if you fall, oh but darling what if I fly?

Being a Sagittarius I seem to have picked up the trait of being an eternal optimist, cheering up seems to have reignited that part of myself. It's time to stop not taking chances, it's time to stop being comfortable and shake things up. I really do believe in the power of positive thought, so I need to find the bright side of things and believe the best is yet to come. I think I have lived enough to have learned that seeing the best in everything can be blinding and can be a downfall. However, I would rather take some falls along the way with the best in mind as opposed to taking the safe path because I might get hurt. I remember every fall, I haven't forgotten, because those leaps before the falls were propelled on a whim of my inner eternal optimist. I cared so much every time, but could move on because the leaps answered the what-ifs that can torture you once the moment has passed. 

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. But sometimes when twice comes around you know what you want the second time, not so blinded after the first time around. Sometimes the timing just feels better, even right. Going in eyes open means there is no one to blame but me if I fall, and that's ok. I can pick myself up on my own, half-gracefully some of the time. But the optimist in me can't pass up the chance to answer those what-ifs, usually once they are they don't seem to ideal anymore, but I can't resist the urge to see. 

Leaping feels better than sleeping.
