Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase. – Martin Luther King Jr.
It can be so hard to take that first step when the rest of the journey is unclear, or even totally unknown. But that is what life is like, each step we take is really a step of faith because we never know what’s ahead, we just have to carry on and deal with what happens next to the best of our abilities. Here Dr. King reminds us that we’ll never be able to see the whole staircase, no matter if it’s an important project, a relationship, or the totality of our lives. It matters not, because as long as you have faith in that first step, the next will appear.

There’s a way to do it better – find it! – Thomas Edison
Of course the guy that invented the lightbulb can find a better way. His message is true though. Just because we feel the task may be too daunting, doesn’t mean it will be. Sometimes when you begin the work that must be done, you find a shortcut.
