Have you ever been to an Airport ?

Of all places in the world, i find an airport as a very interesting moment in time.
Chance took me to an international airport, The timing late past midnight, The following are my understanding and insights.

The exuberance, the excitment, the and the captured "come together of beauty charm and poise" of nature comes together to exhibit a strange collective vibration.

Imagine you drive your car 4 hours down a road, when the journey ends, you want to park your car and rest. Why ? because you are tired,

Now compare this, AN airline pilot and his entire crew walk down the ramp /aisle in perfect uniforms, starched without a crease, female crew staff walking behind the senior pilots, in perfect poise , uniform looking as good as new , with a smile on their face, ( some ficticious, some real ) and then the rest of the passengers.  Niether the pilot looks tired nor the airhostesses and staff following them.

And they have flown a heck lot more than 4 hours of road travel. Road travel you and I can take a pit stop, In the mid air i doubt if they are allowed to park their planes.
Point made by now i hope you get what i meant here.

Now come back to the airport. Fantastic collective energy flow, some people going, some people coming in, ALL happy faces, some sad ones specially in departure area. But at the arrivals area , the amount of poise charms and beauty of the moment is simply energetic and exuberant.

If you have not yet experienced this moment, it is something worth the while missed, Give it a thought.
