JOURNEY OF LIFE AND ITS WINGS

For everything in this journey of
life we are on, there is a right wing
and a left wing: for the wing of
love there is anger; for the wing of
destiny there is fear; for the wing
of pain there is healing; for the
wing of hurt there is forgiveness;
for the wing of pride there is
humility; for the wing of giving
there is taking; for the wing of
tears there is joy; for the wing of
rejection there is acceptance; for
the wing of judgment there is
grace; for the wing of honor there
is shame; for the wing of letting go
there is the wing of keeping. We
can only fly with two wings and two
wings can only stay in the air if
there is a balance. Two beautiful
wings is perfection. There is a
generation of people who idealize
perfection as the existence of only
one of these wings every time. But
I see that a bird with one wing is
imperfect. An angel with one wing
is imperfect. A butterfly with one
wing is dead. So this generation of
people strive to always cut off the
other wing in the hopes of
embodying their ideal of
perfection, and in doing so, have
created a crippled race.
