We are born into this world hence why we, mankind, are not of this world. Babies come into this world already with their wings. As they grow and learn the ways of this world, their wings are slowly and unnoticeably clipped at little at a time.
"Study hard!", "Get that degree!", "You must secure a future for yourself so go for that job/career.", "Work hard now so you can live good later!", are examples of how (even with the best intentions) their wings are being clipped. " 'We' are, fill in the blank (Christian, Atheist, Vegan, Straight, Educated, Wealthy, etc.) is another example of wings being clipped because they're being taught to believe in what is not True. Because "We" are different from "them," there has to be conflict, says Ego.
Choose rather to take them to new heights and show them by example how to live life Now. This means shedding the madness that has clipped your wings and remember Who you are, a perfect creation of Love, not a sinner that is hell bound because of your past.
You can't give them wings, they are born with them, but you can teach them how to fly! Flight takes off in the mind through creativity. Welcome and encourage that from one another and some AMAZING stuff will come through. Stuff like teaching yourself how to play guitar, taking up yoga, learning how to swim, letting go of the Fear of flying, becoming a volunteer firefighter, opening that bakery you've always dreamed of, starting over by moving cross country - and it being a FANTASTIC thing!!
When the madness is seen for what it is, complete nonsense, because it is all made up, our wings will burst open in freedom. Freedom of self expression. Freedom to love whom you love. Freedom to pray to whom you wish. Freedom to walk the streets feeling safe particularly because of "your" race, gender, sexuality, etc. Freedom to choose where you want to live/travel in the world. Freedom to recognize yourself in one another. For it is there our wings will embrace and we will return to BEing One and the Same. Peace
