SOAR!

You, hold within your hands the power to SOAR!

Have you ever wondered what Orville and Wilbur Wright must have had on
their minds and in their hearts that caused them to build a machine
heavy enough to hold human beings and yet light enough to fly
through the air? What compelled them to utilize scrap materials
from a bicycle shop to build wings that would forever change the
world? What drove them to try and fail and try some more and to
keep trying time and time again even when the wind was against
them? Whatever it was, their passionate pursuit of innovation transformed
inspiration and perspiration into aviation!
The Wright brothers knew the laws of gravity worked against
them. They knew that people thought they were crazy for even trying
to create a flying machine that could soar through the skies
above everyone else. However, they defied the odds—
and
gravity—
by
refusing to give up until they discovered new laws, principles of
aerodynamics that enabled a craft of a certain weight travelling at a
certain velocity to gain momentum and catch flight.

Could I create my own flying machine that would enable me to soar
into a future with more options and opportunities than the ground
beneath my feet presently offered?

Standing out there as a boy I knew
that someday, some way, my personal vision of what I could do would
become a reality. I would build something that would transport me
beyond where I stood into the place where I, too, could mount up on
eagle’s wings with the help of the Lord.
I knew I could build my vision from the ground up and find the
power to make it soar and that has made all the difference!

You, hold within your hands the power to SOAR!
