My First Crane Takes Flight

(All images found on Google)

In Japanese tradition, the crane signifies honor and loyalty. It is said that if one makes 1,000 paper cranes, your greatest wish will be granted. 

One of my life goals (I know, I am pathetic) is to learn how to make an origami crane. I have tried at least 15 websites, and more youtube instructional videos that I can imagine. But today. Today, I did it. I made an origami crane. Praise the Lord! I doubt I will be determined enough to make 1,000 in my life, but it is a nice thing to think about :]


Thank you Origamifun on YouTube, for helping me complete one of my many life goals.
