Airplanes

I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things. 

~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Sometimes when I'm outside, I hear the sound of an airplane overhead and I think of all the people on the plane. I think about where they are going and all the choices they make in their lives. Like choosing a job. Or a partner. Or pretzels or peanuts.

After that I usually go have a snack.
