When You Can't Grow the Wings, You Can't Be Called a Bird

As I stood at the crossroads of my career, staring at the daunting landscape ahead, I couldn't help but think about the wise words that had been etched in my mind since childhood: "When you can’t grow the wings, you can’t be called a bird." It's a simple yet profound truth that has resonated with me time and again as I navigated through the ups and downs of life.

The Illusion of Flight

We've all been there – feeling like we're flying high on our dreams, ambitions, and talents. We convince ourselves that we have what it takes to soar to great heights, only to find out later that we're just flapping our arms wildly, pretending to be something we're not.

Characteristics of a Bird

To truly be a bird, you need:

  • To possess the physical attributes that enable flight – wings, feathers, and a lightweight skeleton.
  • To have the mental toughness to overcome obstacles and adapt to changing environments.
  • To possess a natural instinct for navigation and finding food in the wild.

The Harsh Reality

The truth is, not everyone has what it takes to be a bird. Not everyone possesses the physical or mental attributes that come with flying high. And yet, we often try to fake it until we make it – pretending to have wings when all we have is empty space.

Embracing Your True Nature

So, what does this mean for you and me? It means acknowledging our limitations and accepting who we are, without trying to be something we're not. It means recognizing that we may not have the wings to fly high, but we can still find ways to soar on our own terms.

The Power of Resilience

Rather than beating ourselves up over what we lack, let's focus on cultivating resilience and adaptability. Let's learn to navigate through challenges with ease, just like birds do in the wild. And when all else fails, let's remember that even if we can't grow wings, we can still find ways to spread our arms wide and touch the sky.

Conclusion

As I look back on my journey, I realize that it's not about growing wings; it's about embracing who I am, with all my strengths and weaknesses. It's about being true to myself and finding my own unique way of flying high – even if it means taking a different route than everyone else.

So the next time you find yourself staring at the ground, feeling like you're stuck without wings, remember: it's okay to be human. It's okay not to fly high. And it's more than okay to spread your arms wide and touch the sky on your own terms.
