We are drawn to the edges in this life. We sit at the
shore, pondering the expanse of the ocean. We pause at the cliff
and gaze into
the far
reaches of the canyon. We stand on the ground and peer into the
vastness of space. We read of and admire of those who have left the edge and
made a few furtive steps into those untamed reaches. Or shake our heads in
dismay
at the monumental display of folly.
Some never go beyond the edges, preferring to stay enclosed within the
comfort of their boundaries. I find myself there more often than not. But every once in
a while, the edge catches my attention, and I wander over to peer beyond the
fence.
