A singer writes a song from their heart. It embodies their very essence. Like a child, they release it to the world with love. The song flies to the greatest heights, and great review. Now the buzzards come in for their share. It’s the same old story. People show you the faith they have in themselves. They’ll watch your song and then mock it. They think their recognition of your light will dim their own. They don’t realize their lack of faith in you, is reflecting the faith they have in themselves. Then when the bell tolls, and there shadow is seen in your rising light, they reach for what they can’t hold. In the ultimate display of karma they watch you rise.
Such is life’s great lesson. Wings carry the wind that supports them. There is one toll that will be paid in full. When a Free bird flies, it doesn’t forget its path. The flight of the phoenix is extreme, and the slightest faith is well received and etched in stone. No greater light is cast on the naysayer, then a mirror reflecting their own lack of faith in themselves. The sweetest victory comes with the deafening roar of success echoing in the ears of doubt. This message is one of vindication and staying the coarse. Follow your heart, not the empty stares of fearful oppression. They do not have any control of your freedom, unless you give it to them.
Stand tall, your heart knows the way. Be steadfast and ignore the comfort of acceptance. You sabotage yourself when you allow others to say your way. Keep moving. Each step you take in faith, is ten you take in time. Darkness hides your light from your own eyes to see. That’s because everyone around you can’t reflect it back. They can only feed on it. And the moment your wings take flight, they must let go, because it’s too bright. Know your worth. Have faith life has you, and it will be so. But most of all enjoy the journey, because you earned it…
