Roots & Wings

Roots and wings

My dad has always had a note in his office saying; "Only two vary things can we give our children; roots & wings." I didn't understand it's meaning back then. Now I do. The 'Root' is our base, our stability in Life, our parents, who has and always will be there for us like a big fat rock giving us strength and hope. With the 'Wings' I'm pretty sure he means our inner voice and values, things we have learned, our abilities - created with help from our 'Roots' - to take us from A to B and lift us up so we can fly through this adventure called Life..
