“I don’t mind being bone and feathers, mom. I just want to know what I can do in the air and what I can’t that’s all. I just want to know.”


Every living creature in this world is curious about their talents, their capabilities and their weaknesses. That’s why we do things what ever we thought or strike in our minds. Curiosity may lead us to our success or to our failure. Though our heart became fragile if we don’t get what we wanted but still we aimed for the best. To reach near perfection we should have patience, courage, and self-confidence without these in you nothing will happen to conquer all your doubts though you give all your best. At first try, we might falter to achieve what we want but it will not make us weak but will make us eager to achieve it. If you encountered lots of failures it’s not the end of your world but just the beginning of everything. Just like the story of Jonathan Livingston Seagull written by Richard Bach, Jon failed to achieve his goals many times, got discouraged, tried to conform, the passion, fire within and the drive to be better, forced him to try harder to reach success.

All alone he kept on learning, What he had hoped for the Flock then now he gained for himself alone; he learned to fly, and was not sorry for the price that he had paid. Jonathan Livingston Seagull discovered that boredom, fear and anger were the reasons that a gull’s life is so short, and with these gone from his thought, he lived a long, fine life indeed.

  • You have to practice and see the real person, the good in every one, and to help them see it in themselves. That’s love. It’s fun, when you get the knack of it.
  • Look with understanding, find out what you already know, and you’ll see the way to fly.
