Thanks.. Im already on my way to higher numbers... 🙂

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew -
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

Oh.. that poem there... Thats not mine.. I cant take credit for that... It was written by a USAF pilot during WWII.. He was shot down and killed at 19yrs old... But his poem has lived on forever....

yes sweetie... it is... It is incredible.. I can actually feel what he was feeling when he wrote it... its a very good poem, still very well known in aviation circles... Ask any pilot about John McGhee and "High Flight" and they will atleast quote you the last lines of the poem, "reached out my hand and touched the face of God."
Yep... I can Definately relate...
