The Dream of Flight


Childhood, Adolescence & Adulthood Dreams or just my dreams at nights.
Dreams:
The Knight'sDream by Antonio de Preda
Read about dream here in Wikipedia, but I’m talking about another kind of dream & it’s not day dreaming either!
For the past year or so, my dreams have become so engaging and fun that I really enjoy them. Everynight, I look forward to another episode full of fun and adventure.
The BEST part about it that I become some kind of a super hero-like character. I don’t have any another special powers except the ability to flay and soar above ground at high or low altitudes. I have no special gear or wing or anything either. It’s just a will power & a Superman like flight, but I don't go nearly as fast him. The other nice thing about it is that i'm always involved in a pleasant and fun filled adventure. No crary dreams. At times I wake up and I feel like I could write it all done, but the following morning I don’t remember anything except that I had one of those fun dreams.

I used to have a different kind of dream (not while sleeping) when I was in high school. I never wanted to be an astronaut, but I wanted to be involve in creation and conception of futuristic space exploration vehicle of some sort and perhaps work for NASA. One of my earlier heroes was Dr. Werhner von Braun, the German scientist, the designer of the Saturn IV rocket in the Apollo Missions which took the astronauts to the moon. This reminds me of one of my favorite songs David Bowie’s Space Oddity and hear another gorgeous version by Natalie Marchant.

Here is just an off-the-wall song which has nothing to do with this dream of mine, but it’s a note worthy song, an Artetha Frankling’s Day Dreaming and when I fly above rivers and lakes I’m reminded of this perhaps for when I land and arrested for speeding: Bridge over trouble water
