"Heaven is not a place and it is not time.
Heaven is being perfect"
To fly as fast as thought to anywhere, you must begin by knowing
that you have already arrived. He sees farthest who flies highest.
The most important thing is to reach out and touch perfection, in that
which we most love to do. Jonathan Seagull learned to fly and was not
sorry for the price he paid.
He discovered that boredom, fear and anger are the reasons that a gull's
life is so short and with these gone from his thoughts, he lived a long
life indeed.
Flying gives us perspective.
It is perspective that shows us the illusions of a sun's death, which
suggests that if we lift ourselves high enough we will realize that the
sun has never left us at all. It is perspective that shows the barriers
between man to be imaginary things, made real by our own believing that
barriers exist, by our own bowing and cringing and constant fear of
power to limit us.
The answer to every fear is knowing. Begin by knowing yourself. Accept
yourself as you are with all your strengths and weaknesses. Remember you
control your own life and determine your own future by the way you
think. Have a definite plan for the future, know what you want and then
go and get it.
If development is another name for peace, then a "developer" is he who
has learnt to fly to greater and greater heights of perfection and
excellence. Perfection, excellence in all that we do is not a luxury, it
is the duty of every human being.
