Now here I sit with a view to the heavens stretched before me with no end in sight.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Mere mortals of old would never have believed the gift of flight. Yet now among me sit those who take this gift for granted, just a bus in the air to them. No wonder to seek, no awe of a child witnessing the earth&#8217;s majestic heights for the first time. So here I sit my jaw dropped, face pressed to the tiny glass and eyes opened so wide they may soon hurt and I take it in with a smile. I look peculiar in such a confined space as this. Where all are suspicious, cautious and unsure of each other surrounded by strangers. I will smile; breathe it in and thank God for not the destination but the journey upon this plane, this massive invention that gives sight to the heavens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When was the last time you were on a plane ride?
