Would you laugh if someone offered you a course in flying? – not with an airplane, a parachute or other kind of equipment: just flying!
Oh, but we CAN fly! If we understand how…
First you gather your shoulders
then you rise on your tiptoes
you close your eyes
you refuse to listen.
You say to yourself:
now I shall fly.
Then you say:
I am flying
And this is flying.
You gather your shoulders
as the brooks gather in one river.
You close your eyelids
as the clouds lid the plains.
You rise on your tiptoes
as the pyramid rises on sand.
You refuse to listen,
the hearing of a single century,
and then you say to yourself:
now I shall fly
from birth to death.
And then you say:
I am flying
And this is time.
You gather your rivers
as you gather your shoulders
you rise on the bleating of the goats
Say: Nevermore.
And then:
flap
you are fluttering somebody else’s wings;
and then
you are him,
and he
is ever somebody else.
(Nichita Stanescu, The Flying Lesson)
This lesson is worth a fortune, yet it is free... Like presence
But those who cannot attach value to anything free, should be made to pay for it dearly. If they are wise, they will get over the disappointment and realize the money was well spent, turning their eye inwards, where they may find what money could not buy. If they are fools, they will try to fly off the top of their houses, convinced that their money bought them a pair of wings - so much the better! 
But try a free lesson first!
Gather your shoulders...
Rise on your tiptoes...
And - most importantly - REFUSE to listen!
