I love bridges...connecting people n places that would otherwise need to search for a crossing further away, or by some other means.
American airlines (¬ merely th so-named corporate entity) are like bridges too. I appreciate everyone who helped build this bridge between Philly and Chicago, so that I need not drive 12-15 hours and risk accidents, speeding tickets, and other violations...and as much as the U.S. Highway system impresses me with its boundless bounty intersected by an intricate network of hypotenuses, loops, curves and dips and zips...it's not presently feasible to spend a whole day of this trip literally on the road.
&although I've traveled abroad more than most people I know, I don't have significant experience with other countries' domestic airlines. But as with bridges and other infrastructural developments, I know it is one of the realms where America --- the controversial superpower w/ its contradictory tradition of ideals undermined, diminished, and eventually rendered to empty rhetoric - by the plutocratic rule of capitalistic determinism...dunkin donuts, please recycle this bag, and ---- America, the capital of massively destructive weaponry, never tread on thee innovation that has starved and marred many systematically....
And here we go- UP...and away we go. Floating on air.... It'sso amazing: bridges, wings...bringing people together, shortening th distance between places, giving back time. For life...to see your smiling face again..... & I'm staring back at the place I left a long time ago (Chicago), ....I love life.
