Fly

Through a skylight this morning, I saw a leaf flying high in the air. A burst of wind caught it, and it flew even higher. This got me thinking about possibilities.

Sometimes a leaf disconnects from a tree and falls to the ground. Sometimes a leaf lets go and flies high in the sky, having a grand ride and landing who knows where.

I wonder what is possible when I let go, and allow the wind carry me.

Today, I will be on the lookout for times when my expectation that falling to the ground is the only possibility get in the way of letting the wind carry me places I couldn't have imagined.
