What makes a kite fly?

A boy was flying a kite with his father and asked him what kept the kite up. Dad replied, "The string." The boy said, "Dad, it is the string that is holding the kite down." The father asked his son to watch as he broke the string. It came down.

Its same in our lives as well. Sometimes the very things that we think are holding us down are the things that are helping us fly. That is what discipline is all about.
