[ WP ] You have always wanted to fly , today you did .

The wind rushed upwards, stinging my face while my hair whipped wildly in the wind behind me. The feeling was unexplainable; like pure unbridled freedom. I had always wanted to fly through the sky like a bird soaring on a breeze. 
 
 I had been called foolish for day dreaming. I should be more grounded they would tell me, missing the irony of their words. I needed the freedom of the open sky. I needed to spread my wings and escape from it all. No one could truly understand what I was going through and I was lost. 
 
 I looked down and knew it was almost over. My few seconds of flight would end so soon after the jump, and so would I. I tumbled helplessly, down and down off the cliff face towards the water. The knowledge that it would be over soon was unexplainable; like pure unbridled freedom. 
 
 The surface rushed upwards.
