You want to break free but are scared of what might be.

You want to do more but life gets in your way.

You want to fly but your wings are broken.

You want to gallop but a hand is pulling on the reins.

You want to press on but can only feel ‘press down’.

‘You want but you can’t’ seems like an unending road across an even longer desert.

And yet, despite the mud and the sludge and the mess, you know you can take one more step. You know you can do just a little more. You know you can fly just a little higher.

And when you do you give yourself a new story, a new beginning and a new you.

So embrace the fear, embrace the reality of life, embrace the lack of wind under your wings and embrace the oppression that you feel. For through embracing them they transform into a gift that gives purpose to your life and meaning to your day.
