For the people that don't get it: he's comparing being on a plane to zooming out of our everyday lives and looking at the bigger picture. The part where he says "no plane has ever crashed from turbulence" is reference to the fact that sometimes life gets hard, we just give in too soon to see our troubles end. When he says that on the ground he hardly ever thinks of even flying, he means he is so absorbed in his daily routine that the doesn't stop to think about his life as a whole.

“We all have to claim our baggage before we move on” 😢 My interpretation: The idea that our problems, our family, friends and relationships issues, death eventually no matter who you those burdens will hold anyone back, it will drag you and keep you from being your true self, It’s up to you to step up accept what you can and cannot change move on to the next chapter of your life, not forgetting but using those bad memories as learning experiences. I think hopefully that answers the guys question of what this these quote means Thx for the likes

When he talks about being able to see the end of the road but the cars can’t, he’s saying that life can seem so difficult, that this hard ship that your going through is never ending, but just by looking at your life as a whole you can see that it’s almost over, you just can’t see it. When he talks about how turbulence never killed anybody, he’s saying that this pain your going through is temporary, you just need to get through so that you can get to where you’d going, in other words, be the person you want to be. To finalise, it’s all a matter of patience.

I just want to say that I am so grateful for this poem. It grounds my thoughts. I listen to this poem over and over again and it gives me the understanding I need of my own negative thought and feelings when I myself cannot understand them. This poem reminds me to take a flight and look down, noticing that my thoughts and suffering are so small, and very much temporary and passing. This poem reminds me to not react to my loud negative thoughts or negative emotions and to look at myself and acknowledge my own contributions to the conflicts and suffering and be conscious of it. I give others the empathy and understanding, I get a break from my own pain and choose to see their pain. The more and more I listen to it, the more I get out of it. Thank you.

Life is like a luggage, you take it with you to your destination. Wherever you go, you add things to your luggage. You take things out to make room. You organize, and you lose. But most importantly at the airport you claim it, because it's your life, your past, your wealth, your aspirations. It is you, where ever you go, learn to love, cherish, understand, and don't deny it because it'll keep coming back.

May 19,2017 was my first time boarding on an airplane. I was 21. When I've seen the view of the ocean and the green mountainous side of the Philippines, I've just said, "Can I stay above here for a while?" Thanks for this video Jon. I hope you can have wings to fly. 😊😊😊😊 God bless you.

Amen. We are the only ones stopping ourselves. We can see others’ potential (when we are flying above them) but we can’t see our own (when we are on the ground and others in the plane.) We need to trust that we will eventually get there. 👌🏻

Because there is so much hate it the comments it just goes to show how quality it is as a poem , so controversial with so many alternative interpretations . I love it . It says it how it is ,it’s put life in a whole new perspective and that’s why I think this poem is so good because it means something different to every individual that reads it.

@m7rpho 4 жыл бұрын

i think the baggage part was really relatable because, you never really understand what you're doing or what you were doing wrong until you take the blame for that situation. that situation that you haven't stepped up too and took the blame for will only come back again and again until you finally realize that you didn't something wrong, and i find that as such a big thing people these days fail to remember to do. :) great poem, i loved it.

turbulent times aren't always harmless. things that cause trouble in life (& reasons for most suicides) are mental health illnesses. we are not machines, we are people, & no matter what you are feeling, it is valid.

@emiliarivas6358 5 жыл бұрын

True, but when it’s in the context of the poem, he’s referring that there will ultimately be an end to it, making the turbulence harmless at the end when the plane lands, if that makes any sense. Hehehe ||-//❤️

Yes, I know God lives in the believer in Jesus, but I also like to playfully think His perspective on things are so different from man's, just because He sits above all.😀 You just have to see things differently when you rise above immediate circumstances. Awesome God, the Most High.
