Remember, everything has wings.

“You do too. Use your wings for health and for good. To fly away, to fly near, to fold and hide, to keep to the arduous surprising blessed journey. This comes with love for la mariposa, the sacred butterfly in your heart. Butterflies, these tiny creatures of mere painted paper and strength of will, fly thousands of miles in migration, can be torn easily, yet rise and rise and rise. You too. Dont forget. Where there has been one, there will be another. And another, and another. The butterflies are progenitors of life and life and life... the tiniest of the tiny ones, living bold and beautiful, even in tempest, even at rest, they are nonetheless Beauty with wings. Deep breath. I mean it: DEEP BREATH Remember who you truly are. Winged. Beautiful. Wise. Love from my heart to your heart.”
- Clarissa Pinkola Estes
