As I was sitting in the plane from Kuala Lumpur to Alor Setar to visit my aunt the other day, my mind kept thinking about how on earth the plane could fly so high being so heavy with so many passengers.
And as I looked out the window, I could see the wings of the airplane and the clear blue sky. Both seemed connected and airborne!
It then dawned on me that in life, many of us can only see the "heaviness" of life and forget that we too can put down the things that weigh us down in life and propel towards our dreams / goals if life.
The "heaviness" in life can be our unpleasant past, a trauma we have gone through many years ago, job dissatisfaction, tensions at home, or even simply doing things that we don't enjoy or love.
And we think we have no choice.
Hey - we have forgotten that we were born with wings of courage, boldness and confidence.
Let's not be a chicken that can't fly or fly only a short distance. :)
Let's ride on our existing wings and fly towards our dreams and goals in life.
Life is short.
Do the things you love. Love the things you do.
And make the things we do meaningful and purposeful.
Your WINGS already exist.
All you need to do is FLY.
