For Once You have Tasted Flight…
Leonardo Davinci…one of humans great producers gave me this quote a few years back.
“Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”
This single compelling quote inspired me to commence a quest to seek a power beyond what 2oth century humans were “designed” to do. Fly. I can only contemplate the exhilaration of the Wright Brothers on their first flight, or Neil Armstrong landing on the moon or any first time or long time commercial airline pilot. Every time a pilot descends from a flight and before the murky, cloudy thoughts of every day earth life calls, the next pondering must be longing to return to the sky.
We are now able to see this beautiful earth like we’ve never see it before, from above. I will share my thoughts, my hopes, my dreams and everywhere in between on the world of flight & light. I will attempt to be inspirational, spiritual, educational informative and sometimes humorous. Although I may be none of those characteristics, but here on in I will attempt to live by my credo.
I will never be most clever, most creative, most inventive,
I will never be prettiest, strongest, fastest
I will never be most holy, most righteous, most sacred
But combine my mind, my body, my soul
And I will not be beat
I will feed my mind, my body, my soul
And I will not accept defeat
combine my mind ,my body, my soul
And I will not be beat!
This is the first blog in my series and I’m not truly sure where its headed, but as the Wright Brothers believed, the first step is getting off the ground.
