On Moving Forward ...

"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."
- Alan Cohen

Inspired by a friend's post on Change and my own struggles and successes in moving forward, I thought I'd share this quote.

Though I've experienced movement I'd consider adventurous and exciting, sometimes for me the best way to move has been slow and steady. Sometimes it was backward, sometimes it was forward. Either way, most of the time it had its purpose and was better than standing still.
