Looking up into the bright blue sky

Mark Hewitson • Jul 22, 2022

 Summertime is a good time to remember

 Looking up into the bright blue sky, a father and son gazed at the beautiful kite they had created together. The boy became very happy seeing his kite high in the air.


The kite soared higher and higher, and the boy said, “Dad, it seems that the string is holding the kite back from flying higher. If we cut the string, the kite will be free and go even higher."


 "Dad, can we cut the string?”


 The father cut the string and the kite started to go a little higher. The boy beamed with happiness. But then, slowly, the kite started to drift downward and soon fell back to the ground. The boy was surprised and said, “I thought that cutting the string would cause the kite to fly higher, why did it fall down?”


The father explained, "The string was not holding the kite from going higher. It was helping the kite to maintain its position in the sky. The string pulling on the kite keeps its nose pointing upward. When we cut the string and the wind slowed, we couldn’t pull the string to keep the kite pointed in the right direction. So, it could only return to the ground.”



 Summertime is a good time to remember that the things we think are holding us back are really giving us direction to continue toward our goals and what matters most.


 Enjoy the rest of your summer and keep your eyes pointed up!
