Inspiration from Georgia Douglas Johsnon

A piece of inspiration. The world truly is as big as you can dream it to be. So often we put restrictions on ourselves without acknowledging the power we really do possess.


Your world is as big as you make it

I know, for I used to abide
In the narrowest nest in a corner
My wings pressing close to my side

But I sighted the distant horizon
Where the sky-line encircled the sea
And I throbbed with a burning desire
To travel this immensity.

I battered the cordons around me
And cradled my wings on the breeze
Then soared to the uttermost reached
with rapture, with power, with ease!
