A Slippery Slope
You think you stand
on solid ground
Walking the straight
and narrow
A tiny step to the right
or the left
won’t hurt anyone
But it’s a slippery slope
One more stride
to the side
and down you’ll go
And take me with you

The steps we take make a whole lot of difference in the lives of others… we cannot afford to be selfish ❤️❤️
A tiny step may lead to another that harms not only oneself but others.
Yes, it’s important to be careful, especially because of that last line. What we do affects other people.
