    This song always reminds me of a horrible time in my life, where I ended up alone and financially struggling, I almost ended up homeless too. One day after finally getting out of that hole and I moved into my own place, this song started playing on the radio. It was a new beginning for me and the start of a new life.

    My best friend of 33 years (who has lived with me (platonically) for 25+ years) passed away 2 days ago (blood cancer/'Multiple Myeloma'). For the week & a half before his death, he was being kept heavily sedated (for pain) in hospice & was unable to communicate. The day before he died, I held his hand and told him I love him, and asked him to please send me a sign when he gets to Heaven & gets his wings. *ONE HOUR* _after_ his time of death, this song ('Learning To Fly') came on the radio...& the song that played _after this_ one, was "Learn To Fly" by Foo Fighters. Even if it was just coincidence, these 2 songs being played *back-to-back* at the *one-hour mark* after his death, & my having asked him for a *sign when he gets his wings,* brought me comfort. ❤

    This song will always remind me of the bittersweet, turning corners, and moving on. I listened to it a lot around the time that my relationship with my first love, (an 11 year relationship) was fizzling out and coming to an end. I loved her desperately, and yet i knew we were sliding further and further away from eachother. When she broke the news to me that she wanted to move on, I didn't want to let go, as I had told her I never would. What goes up, must come down, and coming down is the hardest thing.

On the day of my first solo flight, he came with me to see me fly for the first time. It was the only time in his 85 years he ever said he was proud of me. And he'd been waiting his whole life to say, "My son the pilot".

      Edit- Actually I thought of something to say:
      This anecdote perfectly exemplifies the incredible power of music. Music is the deepest and most emotional communication form available to us.
      This story clearly shows why it’s important that we always strive to create the best possible art and express the true depths of how we all feel, that words could never describe. Art is more real than life in some ways.

He's a school teacher, now in Army Reserves & goes on drills. His grandfather served in WWII & received 3 💜. He had a difficult experience in service. I take interest listening or reading of our veterans. I like a band which Tom Petty was in years ago. My son is taking me there for my 70th birthday to listen to these bands as my birthday gift. Looking forward to it next month. Again thank you for your hard work & service. Freedom comes with a huge price & all veterans have helped our country. No other country has taken the sacrifice to help America. God Bless!!! 🪖 🇱🇷 🛐
