a glider in the sky.. , Riverdale Park Broadview Toronto Jun 25 2008


Chopin Waltz.. Op.69 No.2

could all those lovely nocturnes & valses of Chopin be more beautiful & elegant if he could taste the feeling of flying in the sky..?


there were two men i used to think of
when i was young in my college hood..
One was Pascal.. the other was Saint-Exupéry.

Pascal felt so diminished and humble when he looked upon the sky.. actually heaven.. standing on earth and he much appreciated the trivialness & shortness of man's life which is out of God's mercy.. which is out of control of God's omnipotence..

Saint-Exupéry.. on the other hand..
thought of all those tiny little blinks of simmering light of home.. here and there scattered on earth he saws while he was flying in the night as a symbol of love of people living firmly on earth which needs to be cared and be appreciated..


my interpretation of the different perception over existentialism of the two was that whether they have a chance to fly freely in the huge 3D space..
because i thought that the expansion of space for human to explore has been affecting a lot of philosophical and religious aspects of people..
