Unfold your wings


Just as staying home is easy for some,
traveling comes easily to others.
Each of us was made for some particular work,
and the desire for that work
has been placed in our hearts.
How should hand and foot
be set in motion without desire?

If you see your desire leading toward Heaven,
unfold your wings to claim it;
but if you see your desire bends to the earth,
keep lamenting.

The wise weep in the beginning;
the foolish beat their heads at the end.
Discern the end from the beginning
so that you may not be repenting
when the Day of Reckoning arrives.
