A few weeks back, we visited my son at his university. This was significant – our first-born was graduating from college.
He gave us a tour of several significant sites, such as the classroom where he discovered that business was not the program of study to prepare him for a life of professional fulfillment.
Another site of significance was a building where he spent a huge number of hours studying. As we visited the top floor and looked into the courtyard, I was amused to see a large collection of paper airplanes sitting on nearly every surface that could not be easily reached.
And I laughed.
What better way to celebrate that vast interior space than watching a paper airplane take flight?
Sure, it may take quite a bit of effort to retrieve those planes. But maybe leaving them up on those lofty places will serve as a reminder that life is not all about studies and classes and achievements.
A moment of seeing a simple folded piece of paper float down and down can only bring delight.
