Just a timely thought...

Flight is freedom in its purest form,
To dance with the clouds which follow a storm;
To roll and glide, to wheel and spin,
To feel the joy that swells within.

To leave the earth with its troubles and fly,
And know the warmth of a clear spring sky;
Then back to earth at the end of the day,
Released from the tensions which melted away.

Should my end come while I am in flight,
Whether brightest day or darkest night;
Spare me no pity and shrug off the pain,
Secure in the knowledge that I'd do it again.

For each of us is created to die,
And within me I know,
I was born to fly.

-- Gary Claude Stoker

I had not read that poem before. Indeed, very timely. Thank you for sharing it!

Such a beautiful sentiment. Indeed, all of us will die, but very few of us will die while doing something we love.
