Sometimes the best way to move into the unknown is to take familiar steps,
small steps.
To do ordinary things
to deal with something that is
in no way ordinary.
We're always going someplace new,
all the time.
Familiar things just let us pretend that we aren't moving into unfamiliar territory.
You take those small familiar steps,
and you try to be honest,
not to live as if nothing had changed
but still to go on with your life.
But there are times
when what you need
is a piece of how things used to be.
