Jump Off...!

Here i am, in a park today, away from work load and all the hustle of city life.The other reason for my presence here to find the reason of my existence. Whenever i am in doubt, I always try to connect myself with nature, surroundings and life. What is one reason that stops you going ahead in life or anything. FEAR? yes your are right. Fear of loosing some one close, fear of loosing money, fear of loosing life, and many more. I am also having some kind of fear in me today which has divided my mind.So i am trying to find the solution by interacting with nature.

This is the perfect place, an empty bench under the tree which offers a great view of park and surroundings. So i am sitting here and lets go back to basics.  why i am upset, what is bothering me, what i want from life, what is the Fear stopping me.I am thinking, thinking as well as scanning the sight around me.

Suddenly my eyes brings my attention to the bird's nest where 2 baby birds are trying to come out of the nest with their mother sitting next to them. After struggling for a bit, they are out and jumping and chirping in their own tone. But mom bird , then, start pushing them to take their first flight and i am thinking what she is trying. Is she mad? she is pushing away her children like this. No mom can do this. Babies are not ready to jump off from the branch but their mom has no second thought. She is pushing them hard now and they have no other choice but to jump. My heart is in my mouth as they could have die by falling off from such height. However they open their wings and start moving it up and down, up and down. Surprisingly, they are trying to fly though not successfully but they are not hurt either. They are now on ground trying really hard to fly but failed.Then here comes the mom to rescue but wait! she is taking them again back to the branch and pushing them again. They fall again without successfully attempt of flying. After so many failures, they are able to fly , not so high but at least to their nest.

It is really a great lesson for me: if you want to fly high then conquer your fear and  focus on your target and work towards it dedicatedly and repeatedly.Don't be afraid of  failures, keep trying as god has given us  wings to fly. So conquer your fear, come out of ur comfort zone and jump off.... jump off.... fly high and success will be urs..
