With Wings

"You were born with wings, 

why prefer to crawl through life?”

Infinite Possibility

The future is simply infinite possibility waiting to happen.  What it waits on is human imagination to crystallize its possibility.

Do Not Be Discouraged

Experts are simply master mistake-makers. They simply weren't discouraged by their countless initial mistakes.

 ~  Brandon A. Trean

Almost.....I almost got the ENTIRE bird - in this case - a Tufted Titmouse.  But, it was not meant to be.  I have often thought I would post my bird "bloopers" - shots I've taken hoping to get these amazing creatures in flight - that usually come out with just half the bird showing.  This time I managed to at least get his head in the shot.  

I'll Keep Trying :) 

The Only Choice

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

We can learn a lot from butterflies.
