I was thinking of St Exupery on a flight in Argentina; the plane was travelling at night parallel to the edge of a tropical storm. I have never seen such lightning. Extraordinary, massive cloud formations, with vast almost continuous lightning.
The most wonderful celestial firework display I have ever seen. Like looking at the face of God.
Erm... anyway, St Exupery wrote about all that cloud shit and stuff in his grown-up books about the miracle of flight.
--I have been with you every day of my life. Tell me you know that. -- Yes, I know it. --You must also know that I shall be with you every day that is granted to me from now on. Every evening I shall sit down to dine with you. Not with my body, which is of no importance, but with my soul. Because this evening I have learned, my dear, that in this beautiful world of ours, all things are possible.
