Born Free - or Wings to Fly
Who AM I ?
Have you ever been in a situation where you thought ‘Oh my … How comes that I ended up here?’ or ‘Man … did this; have been there; own this (my car – my boat – my wife); and now? Was this ALL this life being about?’?
Do you FEEL your life being filled with LIFE? Or do you THINK your life is filled with Life? Or do you FEEL deep inside of your existence that you are somehow missing the point … but do not quite know why?
I was there when I reached the age of 35 – well not really the part with boat and wife but with motorbike and husband. I changed my life completely. And I was there – again - only six years ago…
35 and 49 makes 14 years gap = cycle of 7, right?
Every 7 years we grow a new body…
The eagle builds her nest high up in the mountains – ideally at the edge of a steep cliff. Not only because to protect her nests from predators, but also because an eagle is born to be free and fly high…! Once the little eagles are grown and received their strong feathers, they all sit together side-by-side at the edge of the nest and either jump voluntarily out of their protected ‘world’ (or shall I say comfort zone?) or their mum will at some point kick them out. At first, they are in free fall – and they may feel the fear rising up ‘Oh my Gosh… I will hit hard to the ground and crash and being smashed … I will die…’ – but before they touch ground, they will find their wings… they spread their wings and fly… they find the winds vortexes rising in front of the mountains and soar …
Born to be free…!
YOU are EAGLE – Born FREE…!
YOU have the choice to either stay in the chicken box or the chicken coop or … to find your wings… Spread your wings and fly…!
… Open up to the magical and limitless potential of LIFE! Unleash YOUR potential …

Next time I will share how I came to find my wings – again…
When I left my partner, whom I shared 15 years of my life with, quit my well-paid job, took all my belongings (not much though) and left the country – with no savings on my bank account!
Friends and family telling me ‘You are either very brave or completely crazy. I go for the latter.’ or ‘I wish I had the courage to do the same, but I need the security of my job and my partnership and my home.’ My answer to that always was ‘I feel that I jump out of an airplane with no parachute, no safety line or safety net. And before I touch ground, I find my wings and fly…’

May we ALL find our wings to fly…!
