Leave old patterns behind … (08/11/11)

“All of us are like eagles who have forgotten that we know how to fly … and we’re in a nest with a lot of old food, excrement and stale air.

From when we were very young we’ve had this longing to see the mountains in the distance and experience the big sky and the vast ocean,

but somehow we got trapped in that nest, just because we forgot that we knew how to fly.” ~ Pema Chodron
