Gaining Ground

14 Apr 2020

Falling forward or falling backwards, you still end on the ground

Falling backwards, you will probably land on your ass

You’ll be as comfortable as any tripee could be

But you will be going backwards, losing progress, losing ground

Falling forward or falling backwards, you still end on the ground

Falling forward, you will probably land on your face

You’ll have an awful fall, as awful as any before it

But you will be going forwards, making progress, gaining ground

After standing up, you will be further ahead than before

You may be sore, and covered in bruises, but you have made ground

Keep the ground you have gained, keep falling forward

Any progress is good progress, as long as you are moving forward
