986. hold on to the railings

people walking up
and then they’ll be walking down
life is a staircase  🦊❤️

I stood and watched the people walk up and down the steep staircase that was outside of my friend’s artist studio.  I thought about life on many levels.  The ups and downs. The victories and the defeats.  Enthusiasm souring to inertia.  I watched them all holding on to the railing as they went up and then down the steep incline.  Thank God for railings. We must remember to hold on to them - they help… 🦊❤️
