Have you ever driven or walked over a really long bridge? The kind where you feel suspended in air and the only option is to continue moving forward? The arc of the bridge has blocked your view of what’s behind, and you know that looking over the sides might make way for panic? All you can see is what’s ahead ---
Or maybe you’ve been hiking and throughout the path there are several makeshift foot bridges that help span a small creek or muddy spot. A chain of smaller bridges helping you gain access to the end of the trail.
Perhaps you have a familiar bridge you cross every day; to work, while walking your dog, or on your favorite golf course? You often pay no attention because you know it’s safe, trusted, and you know where it’s taking you.
What kind of bridge has this STRONG challenge felt like so far? It will be different for everyone--- The steps we’ve taken might be familiar, or maybe it’s felt more like you are crossing a huge architectural feat over a large unknown body of water that requires focus and trust.
We’re all crossing our own bridges through this STRONG challenge. And, we’re half way there! Each step you’ve taken has brought you further on your journey to strength. After these 30 days, we know that our continued journey (life!) will have us traversing many different bridges. Be it familiar, unknown, difficult, easy--- our relationships, circumstances, opportunities, and goals will require us to find our next bridge and cross it!
This week, let’s ACCELERATE forward, continuing to put one foot in front of the other to complete the STRONG challenge. Trusting in yourself, your community, and the skills you’ve gained so far--- we can move forward together to accomplish new goals.
