Up Up and Away

With our feet normally firmly planted on terra firma there is something freeing to be released from gravity. I have always wanted to sprout wings and fly away, to be above of it all looking down. I guess that is why I have been skydiving and paragliding, the closest way for me to achieve aerodynamic freedom. Last weekend I had the opportunity to go flying in a small plane. I couldn't stop smiling and looking out of the window, my nose was pressed up to the window. It was exhilarating.
