When Things Go Wrong

Flying a kite is suppose to be a break from chess something to do and relax and watch the blue skies up above and see the heavens. But when things go wrong the mind doesn't relax and yes the nerves can be even more agitated. Consider the flight of a kite such a flight cannot be completely controlled there are too many unpredictable flight patterns a kite can assume. Kites like anything else are doomed to crash and they do and they always will but they are resilient and often do survive many of crashes. Ignoring them when they get tangled up in a tree is difficult to do. The lure is there and the kite cries out to come and get me rescue me. I've witnessed a man climb a tree to rescue this huge kite of mind so astounded was I to see a man with his hands and arms and legs just walk up a tree. I warn of the hazards do not do what I have done to put a human life in danger just to rescue a kite is high risk. And so I have ceased and will desist from flying any kite in conditions deemed at high risk. There are many open places a kite can fly safe from being held hostage in trees and yes power lines present a problem for kites. If I have any words of wisdom it might be there is no such thing as being too safe. Safety rules.
