'sole Purpose'

she wanted someone to catch her just in case her wings forgot how to fly she never realised, that flying was exactly what they were made for and to shelter her in times when she felt lost and alone that was their sole purpose she wasted time worrying, about things that she never had to worry about until she realised the wings were all she needed

Nice delivery of one of life's lessons.Be brave by doing! Not everyone has a mama bird to push them out of the nest. Sometimes we just have to jump. Fun read.Be happy Wilma.

Isn't it just funny sometimes how these things happen? I mean with us expecting others to catch us and then bam! Reality hits and we have wings-- this is an empowering write in its own way, Missy! It made me smile to see you have a couple of new posts here! And you haven't lost your touch with the wisdom and beauty in your words... and ummmm what is this?? You have a twin sister too??! Very cool pic-- thanks for passing by and enjoying the sunset with unsleepy me. Mwahugs!

YES! When humanity over-analyzes the simple things to help us overcome, we end up wasting more time & hurting for longer. Excellent piece!
