plight of flight

February 9, 2009

Recently, I told friends that I’d trade 10 years of my life if I could fly for a day. Yes, minus 10 years of my life just for a single day. They found it absurd; I found it reasonable.

 

I’ve dreamt of flying ever since I can remember. That is the coolest power one can have, and the scariest. Taking your feet off the ground will make you feel unhuman, more than drinking blood will, Lestat said.

 

Flying is absolute freedom, I said.

 

 

The closest I can get to defying linear motion and gravity

 

Off to horizon

Hmm, is this a travel, or a fly using the zip line? I’d love to try flying too, using the zip line though. It will make me happy doing that extreme sport, I would love to try bungee jumping too… Hayyyy, i wish I could try them all and still live, i’m just scared i might have anaphylactic shock when i’m on air!

ako i always dream [as in when I’m asleep] of flying. don;t know what t means. pero in real life, di naman ako nag-iisip na makalipad.

mordsith, di man tayo makalipad physically, i know that there are times in our lives that feels like we are flying [emotionally siguro]. hope you’ve had those kinds of times.

oo naman. he also flied too, wish you had seen it. :)

i also want to try “flying” sports, but i heard it’s expensive, but definitely, i’ll try them before this lifetime ends. :)

I really want to experience flying, literally. :)

Speaking of powers, in addition to flying, I also want telepathy (yoko na mag-cellphone at mag-text), telekinesis (pwede na ko magsulat at mag-type using my mind), at teleportation (pag napagod ako lumipad). Makuha ko lang mga yan masaya na ko.
My zip line sa Subic, saw it in Sports Unlimited, parang Superman ka.

“Taking your feet off the ground will make you feel unhuman, more than drinking blood will. ” - this sounds very Twilight. Haha.

I wish I’d aim to physically fly, too. But I have fear of heights. Your photos are euphoric. Lovely. =)

grabe ka naman, isa isang power lang dapat. hehe.

i love heights. I always look down on the ground when I’m in tall buildings!

haha. as long as i get the shot i want, they must wait not to cross the camera view, lest they ruin my shot. haha.

I wanted to fly too. Bungee jumping is one of my dreams. I wanted to try it before I get really old.

skydiving tyo in the future. Pero ngayon hot air baloon muna. O kaya tumalon tyo sa bangin tapos papunta sa tubig. Ang saya nun!

Pero just dream.. you can actually fly.

I’d rather be invisible. And it’s not because i’m an introvert. hehehe (with matching sungay)

I’ve read somewhere na if you will concentrate real hard, u can make your body elevate from the bed or ground, so pwede din siguro na if you’ll concentrate/focus harder, pwede na fly/float. I don’t know, never tried it.

i think some believers of Buddha float when they fall into deep meditation.
