Spread your wings and fly. Often we limit ourselves because of our past negative experiences. We fear that the present may be exactly like the past. We refuse to spread our wings and give ourselves a chance to fly.
I have always wanted to take pictures of reflections of birds flying over water. I look at my equipment and wonder if that is even possible. But there is no harm in trying I tell myself.I grabbed the next opportunity I got near a small tank I kept clicking photographs. I still do not have that perfect picture I had in mind , But at least I know now that it is possible.
Now I keep telling myself, ‘spread your wings and fly,’ ‘discover new lands’, ‘Try new things’ ,’ let go of your inhibitions’. I give myself a chance to do the things I’ve always wanted to . I am moving out of my comfort zones in some areas of my life. I keep challenging myself and I am the better for it.

Wonderful photo, taking pictures of birds in flight is not an easy job. Maybe if you can zoom in one particular bird, the reflection will come out as you want it.
You are good at grabbing photos of flying birds.
I love life’s challenges.
Thank you Grace. I embrace challenges for they help me grow.
A lovely photo. I think life is a constant challenge and you always have to be up for it otherwise you miss a lot
Absolutely on the dot Rasma, If find talking to myself and encouraging myself helps me a lot to face the challenges.
Life is a single challenge, dear friend
Then it would be one long challenge Lado, I like to think of it as victories and challenges.
A very long challenge that seems to end, my dear friend
I face challenges every day. Some bring life and some I make for myself.
True, I think we all bring some on ourselves while life brings the others.
Every day is a challenge for me.
But you overcome them all , isn’t that right Carol?
