The message
The Kiwi cannot fly, and it does not need to. It finds food in the dark by smelling worms underground through nostrils at the tip of its beak. Stop wishing for wings. Use the gifts you already have.
Ask yourself
Which of my strengths have I been overlooking?
The animal
The kiwi is the only bird with nostrils at the end of its bill.
