The Golden Gate bridge




When you jump off
the Golden Gate bridge
you have 4 seconds
before you hit the water.
According to those few
who have actually survived the jump
the first 2 seconds are fine,
surreal and serene, 
but on the third
your survival instincts kick in;
regret overwhelms your thoughts;
your limbs flail about
desperate to slow your fall.
It is the third second that matters
that's the barrier
you have to push through;
that moment
that demands your resolve.
Anticipate it
and be ready 
to overcome.
