Learn to Fly... On the Way Down...

Today was a day that I was reminded of what a Long journey this Life has been. I was brought back to a time where I was so naked, so raw, so stripped down, to a point where I had nothing left. I was pleading With God, “NO More," l knew I was strong but even the strongest have that breaking point and I was there. 

Looking back I realize how absolutely resilient we are as human beings. How strong I actually am. I see that incredible power to overcome from within. It comes from me doing my part and then succumbing to something greater than I am to do the rest. It gave me the power to see the light in the darkest of nights.

Although now, those times are not nearly as frequent it still does shake me when it happens and I just need to be reminded of where I have come…

I heard this song today for the first time. And the lyrics hit my point right on; yep, you want to know how I learned to fly? It was on the way down… :)

“So keep on climbing, though the ground might shake
Just keep on reaching though the limb might break
We’ve come this far, don’t you be scared now
'Cause you can learn to fly on the way down” –Maddie & Tae
