Going Forward in Reverse

Dorothy Young
Sep 9, 2018 · 1 min read

My life has been a series of starts and stops. And for the most part, it stalls. I can’t seem to gain traction for the life of me! I like to think that I go backwards in forward motion. Or, going forward in reverse.

A fresh start begins at the source, the root or foundation of the new beginning. Does that make sense? It’s like returning to the original starting line to begin the race anew but with stronger legs than you had when you ran the race the first time. This time you know the route. You know the path so well that you can tell when it’s time to stop for water or relax your stride.

Yeah, I’m going forward, in reverse. It’s time to, begin again.
