Without wings

Because we seek harmony and peace in our circumstances we will sacrifice ourselves. We will say "no" or "wait" to what our spirit would say "yes" to. We will shrink and allow ourselves to be put into a box.

When we sacrifice ourselves, or our uniqueness we miss opportunities to give love, or to bring healing to others. By not being our truest self and by not striving toward the fullness of our own purpose we negate the power to give of ourselves.

Everything in our lives will lead us to what we should be, to what we could be. Circumstance is but a tool meant to teach us, and once placed in the hands of purpose may drive us ever closer to the goal of being more of ourselves. Once we embrace who we are (all of who we are) we find freedom. We find that there is power within us. True power is love which is purposefully focused.
