~ Flying Without Wings ~


When you hear or read, "flying without wings", what is the first thing that comes to your mind? I would probably have to say the first thing that comes to my mind is to be FREE. Following that thought, being out there int he world, taking chances, living life without someone or something guiding you. One could say that a lot of times when it comes to finding love, you will fly without wings. Two people, taking a chance, and knowing there is nothing there to catch them, taking a "leap of fate." You can fly without wings in your everyday life, your career, or a marriage. Getting out there and finding what is important to you, and finding what you want. If we all had wings, we would be soaring through life, safe, we know that those wings would always hold us up. This would not leave much room to fall, to learn from our mistakes or struggles. I would chose not to have wings. I recently heard this song "Flying Without Wings, " by Westlife, and found myself listening to every single word. The words are pretty powerful and easy to relate to. This song became an instant hit in the United Kingdom and many parts of the world. Ruben Studdard sang this song on American Idol. Delta Goodrem Ft. Brian McFadden also did an amazing version of this song (could be a top wedding song on my list). Jack Johnson or Matt Nathanson should cover this song!
Here is a little taste:
"Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be

Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary lives
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry

You'll find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

So, impossible as they may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
Cos who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete......."
