They’ve Been There

✨

By Rowan Finley Published 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read
This image was colored by my nine-year-old daughter who amazes me everyday with her many abilities!

At times, we must turn our back on the world, not because we’ve given up,

but because the world needs to see the intricate pattern and growth of the wings on our backs.

We’re certainly not angels,

but there are wings that we have,

you just have to gaze a little harder in order to see them.

It’s not showing off,

it’s simply proving the power and humility in our transparency.

All along, the wings…

they’ve been there.
