82. Right around the corner…

There's something over there. Just over there. One step out of your sight. It's there, waiting for you.

It won't take the first step. That is up to you. You do not know what it is. The only thing you are certain of is that it will remain there. Whatever horror it holds can be kept at bay by just one step not taken. Whatever wonder it holds can be revealed with the easy movement of one foot. The mystery of it continues to grow as you contemplate but will vanish the instant you choose to walk forwards.

What a dilemna. To step or not to step? To know or not? What if one steps and finds that he would have rather remained in ignorance? But what if one lives forever regretting and wondering where that one step could have taken him?
