Our life is a kite that catches the wind and tenaciously heads for the sky; 

Wisdom is the string that tugs downward, holding it back.

The tension is real, but healthy.

There are times when the kite feels tied down by the string,

thinking "if this bothersome string would just let go of me,

I could fly really high." But that isn't true, is it?

Without the string holding it in the face of the wind,

the kite would quickly come crashing to the ground.
