In my search of greatness, I revert to the wheel of safety
Subconsciously repeating the cycle that leads to complacency
Enhancing my stamina and endurance by practicing daily
To develop the skills to move forward, yet I remain stationed
Outside of the hamster cage foreshadows all of which I long to be
But how can I leave, when this is all that's familiar to me?
With one leap.
I jump off of the wheel of comfortable confinement
Completing the first phase in my quest of aspirational alignment
No longer needing to validate what's already mine
With each revelation, I inch closer to the finish line
The hamster wheel granted me strength, but also kept me still
Now I have earned the freedom to explore what my heart needs fulfilled
Using my fears as stepping stones of faith
From a pessimistic state of mind of limited space
I have graciously escaped.
