This old story....

Funny how you can take so many things for granted.... normal... usual.. no big deal! Was awake for the first time on the 57 Mississauga Bus that i take from Islington Subway to Work. Im usually snoring at the window. Yesterday i took the Bus back from work. The bus passes by the Cargo Area of the Gigantic International Airport. It runs alongside the runway which is at the back of the airport. Its so wierd.. I never gave a second thought really to airplanes. they were always something that was inventented and just.. well... there!! nothing great.. just another normal, watever, everyday thing..... until i started my budding travel life and began flying between India and Canada. Looking at those planes, which looked like toys from my bus window, taxi on the runway and then take off gave me a feeling of...well...'wow'. I was thinking of the adventure, the excitement, the unknown and the fear that I've begun to associate with airplanes. You're going some where.. but dont really want to leave.. excited about the journey.. scared for your life.. the butterflies when you take off.. the drop of your stomach when you land.. So many emotions.. its crazee that just looking at them stir so much. Makes me yearn to join the traveling bunch again.. Watching the planes take off....the run down, the leap into the air and then the tucking in of the wheels.. seems like an old story that ive heard a million times but understood only now....
