Glass Ceiling

Glass Ceiling
Walking under the glass the entryway at work today (first day back from a week away) and noticed a hummingbird trapped under the glass portico...Trying for all it had to fly up through the glass, and not making any progress.  My heart hurt for the little bird and I thought, if only he'd take a dip down and under the lip of the overhang instead of up into the glass, he'd be free. Couldn't help wondering what message hummingbird was carrying for me as I watched its plight? 

Even the seemingly tireless need to watch their energy stores and resources to be able to enjoy freedom? 

An invitation to flex my path as I fly light and strong, and move quickly to align to my true life purpose? 

Where is my joy and lightness as I walk into this building today? 

Luckily, he was gone when I left for the day, so I'll assume he delivered his message to me and went on his merry way.
