How appropriate it is that a pioneering aviator should write these fantastic words
“Him that I love, I wish to be free — even from me.”
Incredible thought. But this comes from someone who wrote this as well –
“Don’t wish me happiness — I don’t expect to be happy; it’s gotten beyond that, somehow. Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor — I will need them all.”
What makes some of us so more much articulate and perceptive than others?
Lindbergh – well-educated, seasoned by personal tragedy, wise but occasionally foolish. Who indeed knows what compels some to live at the soul level while others trip through their lives, seemingly oblivious to their surrondings?

Well, I am grateful you are though!
