Jump
He who jumps to conclusions
risks falling into error
He who jumps with excitement
will fall back into the mundane
He who jumps at an opportunity
may fall into disappointment
He who jumps through hoops,
leaping over hurdles,
and
skipping past hindrances
to make a dream come true
will be filled
with lasting satisfaction
