the first step you take is always the most important one

The first few steps you take on any journey
won't get you where you want to go.
But without those first few steps
and the many more to follow,
you would be always standing
right where you are,
looking towards the future
and wondering what it would
really be like
to see your world
the way you always
dreamed it would be.

One of the greatest lessons
in life is the one you learn
about moving forward
and taking steps to reach our goals.
Life rewards those who are willing
to be involved in it
and take chances.
Take your chance
and take those first few steps,
because a better life is just waiting for you.
