Flying High

Brahminy Kite, in flight

 

First day of the new year- bright sunny and windy. Its a beautiful morning and I could see so many kites flying outside my window. They are flying high, much above the buildings and trees, defying gravity. I wonder if they are flying for food. But no, unlike many other birds they are not flying to collect some food. But it looks like they are flying for some higher purpose. Perhaps telling us that we all must rise above !! rise above petty things and try to achieve some higher purpose in life.
