Believe and soar higher

I just discovered the fact that eagles know that a storm is approaching long before it breaks! Did you?

What the eagle does is to fly to some high spot and wait for the storm. And eventually, when the storm hits, it spreads its wings so that the storm picks it up and lifts it above the winds. So, while the storm rages below, the eagle flies above it! In effect, this means that the eagle doesn't escape the storm but merely uses the wind power of the storm to lift itself higher.

Similarly, when the storm of life hits upon us, we can rise above the difficulties by believing in ourselves and in that supreme power. We may not escape completely but can sure overcome the difficulties by our strong belief. 

It is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them :-)
