Some choices we live not only once but a thousand times over, remembering them for the rest of our lives.
Wisdom
Same with anyone who's been flying for years and loves it still...we're part of a world we deeply love. Just as musicians feel about scores and melodies, dancers about the steps and flow of music, so we're one with the principle of flight, the magic of being aloft in the wind!
Love
Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.
Life
