As Though I Had Wings

“The day I understood everything, was the day I stopped trying to figure everything out. The day I knew peace was the day I let everything go.”― C. JoyBell C.

“When I say it’s you I like, I’m talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.”― Fred Rogers

Framing
Thinking
Perspective
A shift
A tilt
A turn
Same becomes new
Familiar becomes fresh
Telescope to kaleidoscope
As though I had wings.

“I want to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.” – Mary Oliver
