KITES




Passing by Marina Beach, I did what I always do when I go down that road; look up into the sky. The sky is at its colorful best over Marina Beach. It is seasoned with kites flying about at all times!

Kites, I love them. I am fascinated by them. I can sit around all day staring up at a kite and be content. Kites are such happy things (assuming things have feelings). They just fly about all day without a care about anyone down below. Just flying away in perfect bliss.

On pondering, I realize all of us are like those kites, happy to think we are flying high and free! But invariably and sadly, all of us have ever so obediently given the string that controls us to somebody else - God, some supernatural power, or just another person on this planet. Yes, we let someone else control us. And being the content fools time has made of us, we aren't even aware of it.

To the few kites that have broken away and truly flown to freedom - BRAVO
