To accomplish our destiny it is not enough merely to guard prudently against road accidents. We must also cover before nightfall the distance assigned to each of us.
Alexis Carrel
What are wings anyway? Little flimsy things that flip up and down or big metal appendages on airplanes that make them fly through the air? In this case, none of the above.
Wings are the truths of your life. They are the foundation of your beliefs and what enable you to rise above your circumstances rather than being defeated by them. In this journey we call “life” we are inundated with information, most of which is a lie. When we find our wings, we are no longer limited by our circumstances or what other people say about us, and we can leave those negative influences behind.
“Every happening, great and small, is a parable whereby God speaks to us, and the art of life is to get the message.”
Malcolm Muggeridge
The life of a butterfly is an example of the changes we all must go through in order to become what we were ultimately created to be. There are no shortcuts. The hardships, the struggles, the overwhelming obstacles we face are merely stages of a process that ultimately result in something incredibly beautiful.
A life.
