Not sure how many of you are up on your Greek mythology, but forgive me if you’ve heard this before. Icarus, the son of Daedalus, began to dream one day that he could fly higher than the sun on wings he fashioned for himself.
He believed.
But the problem was, the bird feathers and wax didn’t truly make Icarus an eagle, they made him a human who was trying to go beyond his ability. And while he did rise to the occasion, literally, in the end he was nothing more than a human who ultimately crashed back down to earth in a flurry of feathers and melted wax.
