Fly Away

Some days, we dream of a time when all who depend upon us -- all the people and all the creatures -- are safe and content and without worry; when they can fully care for themselves and/or have others who don't hesitate to come to their aid whenever and however necessary; when they need nothing from us.  Then, for just a few moments, we will enjoy the strange and uncomfortable freedom of looking after solely ourselves.

And perhaps, if we are very, very lucky, someone else will look after us for a little bit, too.

Fly without wings;
Dream with open eyes;
See in darkness.
