A Reason To Live
 
"There is a higher purpose for our lives, a plan that we can't see right now.
And it's OK to trust that purpose and plan - even if we don't see it clearly or fully understand it. Or even like it that much.

I don't believe we were intended to slug around on the ground, carrying a heavy burden on our backs.

We're meant to claim our wings and fly. Sometimes, to get our wings strong enough to fly, we have to beat on the edges of our cocoon for a while. It hurts, too. But the pain isn't the purpose; it's just sometimes part of the path.

Live in the present moment. As gracefully as possible, let go of moments past. Feel and release your fears too.

Then, learn to fly. Trust the butterfly that will come out of the cocoon.

Better yet, become an eagle. And teach others how to fly, too."

(((Alffe))) (((Wren))) ....Truth, when found, is always profound....It leaves us a little awed to think of the possibilities....leaving the nest, whatever that nest be made of, can be scary....but, to fly...well...we have to experience it....sometimes the first solo is well done, the thermals are just right...and other times...(((dear Wren))) the first solo leaves us on the ground somewhere, and someone comes along to mend our wings so we can take off again, only to soar in places we never thought we could....love you guys...:hug: :hug: :grouphug:
