As a child, your biggest goal is to learn to walk. Your parents get excited when you take your first steps. Eventually, you learn to walk on your on, to run, to jump, and to use your feet. Everyone around you says "Just keep walking. You might fall, but get up, keep walking, never stop, and dont look back." This is true about life as well. You hit bumps, hills, pot holes, storms, and wind. You are greeted with sun and warmth and rain and cold. But you keep walking. Its all you've ever know. To walk through everything. Then one day, your path crosses with that certain someone, and you begin to walk along side them. Together you begin to grow wings, and learn how to fly along side each other. Yes, you still hit storms and troubles. But now its easier, for a while, because you can fly, and there's always someone with you. Until the day that you get hurt. That person that you've relied on hurts you, and you hurt the,. And your wings get ripped off. Toghether, you fall to the ground.
Eventually you have to pick yourself up again, and keep walking, and forgive that person, and yourself. You love them. You have to use the strength, wisdom, and knowledge that you learned. And you began to fly again. You're flying without wings. Because you learned to fly once, with wings, with that certain someone, you have memories, strength, wisdom, and love. You can fly again, even though you dont have wings. See, love teaches you to fly. And when you hit issues, and lose your wings, love keeps you flying. Love hurts, alot. But it gives you your wings, and even though you lose them, keep flying. Without wings.
