Take the First Step

The longest journey starts with a single step.  I don't know who first said that.  Probably someone from 'way back' like Aristotle or something.  It sounds like something he'd say... and it's true.  When we know how long the journey is, or when we don't that first step must be taken.  It did not occur to me that we might get stuck at the start, and it seemed slow at first, but that first step is now taken and we can move on.  Sometimes that first step takes a LOT of preparation.
