Morning Reflections
Wings on My Path…
Every day just gets better and better.
This morning on the pier, I looked around at all the wings surrounding me and thought about how different my path looks from anyone else’s. And I’m so grateful that it does.
I can’t imagine my mornings without these beautiful little souls flying toward me, lining the railings, following me down the pier and showing their excitement simply because I showed up. Their happiness is contagious. It’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever experienced.
Moo was especially excited this morning, and that little face gets me every time. 🐾 Pegleg made sure to find me, and My Little Buddy was there too. He recently lost his little foot, yet there he was, resilient, adapting and still so happy to see me. Watching him reminds me how much strength can live inside such a tiny body.
I may not be able to change everything for them, but if I can make their day a little easier, give them a little love, or help keep their home a little safer, then I know I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.
“Your path isn’t supposed to look like everyone else’s.”
Some people may never understand why this means so much to me, and that’s okay. It isn’t their path.
This one is mine.
And somehow, mine came filled with feathers, tiny feet, happy faces, trust, resilience and more wings than I ever could have imagined.
I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Forever grateful for wings on my path. 🪽🤍
Capturing beauty, sharing light.
