Flying free

I've been thinking about this phrase we all may have heard:

"Let it go, and watch it fly."

I've been thinking about how sometimes in life I like to keep things close to me or see myself wanting to control or even take control. But, how can I expect something to fly if I'm still holding onto it? How can I expect something to grow if I'm still holding onto it? How can I expect something to learn if I'm still holding onto it? 

LET IT GO! WATCH IT FLY! 

It may crash, but when that happens just help it up.

I want you to fly higher than I can, 

I want you to grow taller than I am,

I want you to walk further than I've walked,

I want you to see more than I've seen,

I want you to FLY!
