Strength and perseverance

She knew she could fly.

Her wings grew strong and beautiful...

 through faith and perseverance.

Nothing could hold her back...

 from reaching her dreams.

She believed in herself.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit
the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. 

~Maya Angelou

Just like the butterfly, I too will awaken in my own time.
