Rebirth from the AshesWritten by Denni Gill
The legend of phoenix can actually be found in several belief systems. It can be traced back to ancient Egypt when it was then known as “Bennu” or Bynw”, a symbol of sun god Osiris. Osiris was resurrected to life from serving as ruler of underworld. Whether this mystical bird is attributed to Chinese “Feng-huang”, Jewish “Milcham” or even an emblem of Christ, legend remains same…After serving its life cycle, phoenix builds a nest and then by sun and friction of its own wings, is consumed by fire. It is inevitably reborn from very ashes. The phoenix is therefore symbolic of resurrection, immortality, and my personal favourite - triumph over adversity. I has been said repeatedly that there are two types of people in this world: “marathoners” and “sprinters”. Both are ambitious at heart. They set a goal and will pursue it zealously. The only difference is that a sprinter expects to see immediate results and if they do not receive those results, they may get discouraged and give up all together. A marathoner on other hand, can get side tracked, knocked down, and trampled on, but will refocus and redirect when necessary in order to meet their ultimate goal. For example, a woman who had planned to lose thirty pounds in three months may be disappointed upon realizing that after first month, she has only lost six. She had obviously expected to see faster results. But if that same woman takes into consideration that she is more toned or has more stamina, she may alter her official goal. She may decide “I want to go down a few dress sizes”, or “I want to be able to incorporate fitness and nutrition into my lifestyle permanently.” Along way, she may miss a few morning jogs or go off her so-called diet, but above all, she is patient with herself.
