Wings

If you are looking to become more certain of yourself, your place, your path, your choices, your voice…

Walk as though you have wings.

Trust me.

Focus.
Picture it.
Feel it.
Great, weighted, feathered wings.
Sprouting out from your shoulder blades.

The spines of your scapulae. 
Attached to long, tapered, hollow bones, wrapped in dense, warm flesh, covered with countless, smooth feathers. 
Feel the alignment, and elongation of your entire vertebral column, to support the powerful, though strangely airy, twin avian appendages.

Feel the depression and extension of your upper back, accommodating the powerful shifting sensation in your center of gravity.

Feel your sternum rise.
Your entire torso swelling with potential power.
Manubrium ascends, as your ribcage expands deeply, completely. 
Spread your shoulders, feel the strength of your movements as you tentatively flex, and stretch.

Now.
Can you feel the wind of your majestic wings beating?

Plant your feet firmly.
Step with certainty. 
Stay there.
Lifted.
Untamed.

Free.
