The vast expanse of the sky has always faff scinated me. It conjn ures up images
and legends of great heroes frff om bygone eras and all of the romances of their

ventures and accomplishments. In my heart, the sky has always had a special
place, as the foff cal point of my thoughts. How could it not be? It has captured and
enraptured my heart and soul ever since the day I was here on Earth. Its sheer size

and ravishing beauty have never faff iled to leave me intoxicated and speechless.

To be able to flff y, to be able to dance so frff eely in the sky...I would give up

everything, throw away my lifeff just to have the azure blue sky my personal stage.
The frff eedom it provides, the opportunity it brings, the ability foff r me to see the

world and broaden my horizons...how much I would give up to have it within myyy
grasp, how gratefuff l I would be to the saintly magician who could fuff lfiff ll myyy wwwiiish.

Today, I lay on the fiff eld of grass, my faff ce gently caresssseeeddd bbbyyy ttthhheee wind, I look
up to the sky and ponder, and realise how thankfuff lll III ouuuggghhhttt to be foff r being born

into this world. I am foff rtunate to be given liiffeeffff anndd tto be brought into this world,
to be able to see the vibrant sky,, tthhee aaubburn sunset and the darkness-chad
nightfaff ll. This gamble, this diaabboolliiccal exchange, I will take, just to fuff lfiff l my dream

of flff igghhtt.
