This post has no heading. But with due reason. and the reason being that i cant summerise what im about to write... but it will make sense once u dwell on it...
Man WAS meant to fly. its just that god or whichever governing heavenly body didnt give us wings. But that wasnt the problem... the problem was beliving that we didnt have wings to begin with... to sum it up... we put limitations on ureselfs.
im not talking about literal flight. where i jump off a cliff and start soaring. im talking about the human spirit.
in my line of work i meet a whole bunch of people. and most of those people i meet are quite content with the way their lives are goin. that being said that, they are quite satisfied knowing that in the end of the day, they get their pay check and thats preety much it. life becomes the constant struggle to get more money... i repeat again... life becomes the constant struggle to get more money...
money has become the sole commodity for people to live for. whats happened to living life for the glory of things. having new experinces, doing things knowing the fact that this life is the only shot your gonna get to be all you can be. people today pride themselves with the fact that they got a cool car, bike, shoes, clothes, computers, mp3 players... since when has having a good life depend on the things you own... in the words of brad pitt in fight club "things you own, end up owning you"
True?
Human flight and the ability to soar comes for the sole fact in beliving that noting is impossible. As kids we always believe that we can grow up to be whatever we want. also as kids we've had the most fun. thats cause we believe that anything is possible with a little bit of immagination. at some point in our existance we let that child inside us go and the limitations are instantly put fourth.
do you ever sit to think about when that happened? when was that single moment where you clipped your wings and decided to keep your feet on the ground...
i know its a complete mind trip if u really sit to think about it... but i think its worth it... even i lost that ability to fly... but im tryin to figure out how to get it back. every moment that goes by, things get clearer... and im already off the ground....

So true. I think as we grow up, priorities change and we lose that innocence and the spirit of a kid.
Food for thought here. How you doing.
A real eye-wide-opener this...
My wings
My belief
Got buried beneath
A heap of grown-up assumptions
Weighed down
I stick to the ground
My life going round
In the same old circles
But one day
Yes one day
I'll fly back up there, someway
Coz that's where I truly belong...
Cheerio for yur flight matey. Don forget to put on that seat belt!
