Wobbles are a part of our life — from the time we are born to the time we leave this world. What immediately comes to mind when I hear the word ‘wobbles’ is a baby first learning to walk. The first time a baby learns to stand up, you can clearly see how her legs wobble as she hangs on for dear life to the rails of her crib. But look at her face. She grins from ear to ear, triumphant at her achievement, unmindful of her instability.
As that baby learns to walk, her wobbles are still obvious. She takes a few steps, wobbles, falls, and immediately tries to stand up and walk again. Does she show frustration? Does she stop trying? Absolutely not. She tries over and over again until a few weeks later, she takes her first few steady steps that eventually turn to walking all over the house and even to running.
I heard someone once say that we are all born fearless. That a baby learning to walk has no fear. She is totally trusting of life and what she could eventually learn from all her falls. As we interact more with the outside world, however, that is when we learn to fear, doubt, and lose our trust in the world and sadly, many times, in ourselves.
