Guess what I did today!
I cycled down leafy,
tree-lined Malone Park
with no hands!
Imagine!
Aren’t I great?
I’d been trying to do that for years
and had never been able to do it.

Why was today different
from all of the other days
when I tried and failed?
I don’t know.
All I know is that today
it felt right
and it felt like fun!

I can’t help feeling
that other goals in my life
that usually feel impossible
really aren’t impossible after all.
All I need to do
is to be patient,
trust in My God
and to keep on trying.
