When we started, we all had beautiful wings. Along the way as we experienced a lot of challenges those wings started to break, but we didn’t give up, until we are able to achieve our dreams and goals in life. However, are we really willing to sacrifice our wings to achieve those dreams or sacrifice our dreams to save our wings?

We all made extensive sacrifices for us to be able to reach our goals. But some were willing to break their wings for their future and their goals. The amount of sacrifices and hard work goes to reaching our dream is a huge challenge for all of us. Day by day, night by night, we study and work hard for us to reach our dreams with our own hands.

We need the support and hands of our family and friends that will help us to be able to fly with our broken wings. With enough determination and persistence, all that tiring exertion we put in will all be worth it.

Our future depends on us, and we depend on our future. The more challenges we encounter along the way, the more our wings get broken. And there will be a time, that the wings will be broken. However, all the sacrifices and hard work we exerted will all be worth it, once we reach our goal. We will all fly together with our broken wings and succeed together as one.
