5-7-5

Porcelain trembles

Dinner plates tectonic

Shattered heart Japan

Seismic blast surges

Waters rush rise kill recede

Cherry blossom tears

Fukushima burning

Reactor fires one two

Three the four horsemen

My prayers are for you, Japan. I hope you will smile again, soon.

In this nature-man-made-mess.
What makes a difference is compassion and the will to express it. It brings light and hope.

There are four interdependent elements of flight: Lift, thrust, drag and weight. I will categorize each entry in this flight log/blog according to each of these elements of flight. Many things, for example, will end up in the Weight category. While Weight may seem the antithesis of flight, it is usually the things making up the weight--the passengers or payload--that are the reason for initiating flight. Therefore, no Weight, no flight. Thrust will be the things that inspire and propel me and, hopefully, us higher and farther. Drag will be the things that slow me and us down. And Lift will be those magic moments when we leave the earth and soar.

There is an art, or rather a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. ~Douglas Adams, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
