I was reflecting on life and thinking about life's challenges. They can be overwhelming. If we allow them to. This past year has been a really challenging year for me. I feel the winds of change blowing in my life. And now I am ready for them.
When we have challenges many times we tend to act like a chicken and run to the coop to hide. I have been guilty of that time and time again. Probably one of my biggest faults. As a child we were never taught how to face problems head-on. We retreated or got someone else to fend for us. Not real good life lessons.
I realize now that there are other ways to deal with challenges - and that is to allow them to make me stronger.
The eagle - when facing a storm - will allow the storm to lift him up as he stays true to himself and stays strong. The winds will lift him up and make him stronger as he fights what is trying to come against him. His wings are stronger, he knows that storms are only temporary and that he will get through this one just like the last one.
I have decided that I have been chicken long enough. I am spreading my wings and facing each storm.
Go ahead winds...I am ready for you!
