Baby leaps

People think I'm not much of an adventure girl, the leaping kind. That's what I said. He looked puzzled and said no. That that wasn't what he saw. I'm scared*. Deeply. That's no mystery. Yet I leap my way. I was scared** of so many things and somehow gathered the courage to keep going. Countless times I was on the brink of bailing yet I stayed and faced the storm. I conquered the stage, even if I'm still a little frightened of it. Little by little. Baby leaps. But leaps nonetheless. And that counts. Especially if you consider the baggage. I'm not a quitter. I'm just doing it my way.

*from scar, wound
** from scare, fright
