Believe in Your Wings: A Lesson from a Pigeon

Have you ever stopped to watch the world around you and found inspiration in the simplest of moments? Sometimes, life’s most profound lessons come from unexpected sources. Today, I want to share a story that unfolded right in front of my eyes on a seemingly ordinary morning — a story about a pigeon and a lesson about self-belief.

This morning, I was on my terrace, enjoying the sunshine. I noticed a pigeon perched precariously atop a wall that had a steep 45-degree incline. I couldn’t help but wonder what would happen if the pigeon lost its footing and fell. For several minutes, I kept my eye fixed on this bird.

Time passed, and my curiosity was soon satisfied. The pigeon, just as I had feared, slipped and began to tumble down the wall. But what happened next took me by surprise.

Instead of falling to the ground, the pigeon unfurled its wings and flew into the sky. It had no trust in the wall’s stability, but it had unwavering faith in its own wings.

This got me thinking about our own lives. When things get tough, we sometimes lose faith in ourselves. We blame our problems on bad luck or even on God.

In life, we all face challenges that feel like slippery walls. We might slip or even fall. But remember, falling doesn’t mean failing. What matters is how we respond, Spread your wings, and believe in yourself. You can fly higher than you ever imagined!

Thanks
