They say there was a bird
Mythical, mystical, and legendary.
Phoenix, a bird that was unheard
And he roamed around freely.
“A majestic creature - the Phoenix - builds its nest in the night, just before dawn. Unlike the other beings in Paradise, the Phoenix was considered to live a happy life. That was a land of incredible elegance and glory, said to exist just beyond the light of the sun. It tilts its head back and sings a melancholy song while the sun rises in the sky.
The Phoenix first appeared in the mortal world to the west after 500, 540, or 1,461 years. It flew west until it reached the spice meadows that had developed in Arabia. It came to a halt there, collecting only the finest herbs and spices (especially cinnamon) The Phoenix built a nest and awaited the rising sun.
The next morning, when the sun god began to pull his chariot through the sky, the Phoenix would turn east to face him as the sun rose above the horizon.
It would then sing one of mankind's most exquisite and surreal songs, so perfect that even the sun god had to pause and listen. When the Phoenix finished his farewell song, the sun god packed his chariots and continued his journey through the sky.
This caused a spark to fall from the sky, igniting the nest and the Phoenix. The only thing that remained was a tiny worm. After that, a new phoenix would be born..”
I'm not sure if the legendary phoenix bird is true or not, but one thing is certain: this bird has taught me some valuable lessons, motivation, and strength of character to fall but rise again with grace and divinity.
If you've ever heard the story of the beautiful phoenix bird, you'll understand what I'm talking about and why I'm talking about it. That bird was not only magical and mystical, but it was also a source of hope. Who used to sing beautifully, who adored the sun, and who loved cinnamon twigs.
This bird makes you feel hopeful and alive, and he teaches us all that there is always hope, no matter what the situation is right now. You'll overcome everything with a pinch of hope, and everything will be fine.
I may be on the ground right now, but I know there will come a time when I will be able to fly as high as the Phoenix, where no one will ever be able to reach me or tear me down.
Yes, time's tough but darling, so am I. And so do you.
Never lose hope because hope is what makes us alive.
