[@edwardhopkins3254]

For the people that don't get it: he's comparing being on a plane to zooming out of our everyday lives and looking at the bigger picture. The part where he says "no plane has ever crashed from turbulence" is reference to the fact that sometimes life gets hard, we just give in too soon to see our troubles end. When he says that on the ground he hardly ever thinks of even flying, he means he is so absorbed in his daily routine that the doesn't stop to think about his life as a whole.

“We all have to claim our baggage before we move on” 😢 My interpretation: The idea that our problems, our family, friends and relationships issues, death eventually no matter who you those burdens will hold anyone back, it will drag you and keep you from being your true self, It’s up to you to step up accept what you can and cannot change move on to the next chapter of your life, not forgetting but using those bad memories as learning experiences.

[@IP00ding]

When he talks about being able to see the end of the road but the cars can’t, he’s saying that life can seem so difficult, that this hard ship that your going through is never ending, but just by looking at your life as a whole you can see that it’s almost over, you just can’t see it. When he talks about how turbulence never killed anybody, he’s saying that this pain your going through is temporary, you just need to get through so that you can get to where you’d going, in other words, be the person you want to be. To finalise, it’s all a matter of patience.

[@saraijimenez5509]

I just want to say that I am so grateful for this poem. It grounds my thoughts. I listen to this poem over and over again and it gives me the understanding I need of my own negative thought and feelings when I myself cannot understand them. This poem reminds me to take a flight and look down, noticing that my thoughts and suffering are so small, and very much temporary and passing. This poem reminds me to not react to my loud negative thoughts or negative emotions and to look at myself and acknowledge my own contributions to the conflicts and suffering and be conscious of it. I give others the empathy and understanding, I get a break from my own pain and choose to see their pain. The more and more I listen to it, the more I get out of it. Thank you.

[@pyjamakoala2969]

turbulent times aren't always harmless. things that cause trouble in life (& reasons for most suicides) are mental health illnesses. we are not machines, we are people, & no matter what you are feeling, it is valid.

[@kshirin0298]

Exactly. That's what makes this metaphor a bit weird when you think about what Jon didn't mention in the poem.

[@emiliarivas6358]

True, but when it’s in the context of the poem, he’s referring that there will ultimately be an end to it, making the turbulence harmless at the end when the plane lands, if that makes any sense. Hehehe ||-//❤️

It is really amazing how you managed to explain life through the airport , i never thought of that before.

[@wabisabi2819]

I have always loved flying but i have never seen the world through his eyes. This was beautiful and powerful.

[@TheSunnySimi]

This is a really simple poem about flying and yet? There are tears in my eyes?

[@isabellesci.9849]

everyone is chasing the dreams, and away from home, difficulties and past, I am one of them, and I miss home. Thank you for the beautiful poem!

[@riquelcarey]

This is powerful in soo many ways and you realise that soo many things are small in comparison to that big picture that we just cant see yet, not if we let the fear of being a bit uncomfortable stop us from getting to where we need to be.

Take aways: “turbulence” does not mean harm. It’s just a little trouble that would go away eventually W/ the bag on the carousel: your great destiny is already there just waiting on you to actually grab it

For those who dont understand i think referencing things like the house is much bigger than it looks shows us the impossibly positive impact gratefulness will have on our lives.More or less showing people the very repetitive phrase of never give up.

[@CalBart42]

that was brilliant ... a higher perspective .... in times of stress and uncertainty i go in my mind to the moon and look down from there and the uncertainty and stress just fade away as the bigger picture comes into view ... I loved your poem and thank you for sharing

The line about how your suitcase keeps coming back to you until you grab it really shook me, so true don't ever be afraid to own what's yours for you never know where it will take you as long as you grip that baggage tight and fall in love with your dreams it's only a matter of time till what makes you anxious is simply what.. seems.. to be.. not what's reality..

[@kylemoilanen40]

Jon I’m seeing a lot of people not understanding this but this is art, well done. Perspective for life is beautiful and I think you’ve captured it, be proud of this creation

[@wrigleysings1940]

The part about divorce papers actually really annoyed me because sometimes divorce is definitely for the better. If you can’t trust or love your partner anymore than there’s no point to the relationship.

Wrigley Sings it's called marriage for a reason for better or for worse that's why people say take your time before you get married don't rush into puppy love

[@lorenickes3193]

@@tithokozebanda9929 but it's not always puppy love. Sometimes 2 people fall in love, but then they fall out of it. Maybe one of them became abusive, or maybe they felt forced into a marriage they didn't want. There's so much going on behind the scenes than just "oh it was puppy love".. Sometimes divorce is the best option

[@bigshotmovieverse2621]

Yes, I know God lives in the believer in Jesus, but I also like to playfully think His perspective on things are so different from man's, just because He sits above all.😀 You just have to see things differently when you rise above immediate circumstances. Awesome God, the Most High.

[@CharlieCakes]

I love this!!! Thanks for sharing! I had to watch this multiple times! Im an actress and I want to speak and do poetry, I have a few poems on my page and self published my first book of poems this year but I essentially want to do what you do for a living, speaking, writing and creating art that glorifies our God. Thanks for this incredible piece! Absolutely sublime, such an inspiration and so encouraging! Sending you bucket loads of high fives!

It's about accepting the struggles with face in life as part of our growth, and trusting that God is always in control and sovereign over our lives as He sees the hardships we will face and has already planned how we will overcome them, even though we can't see them.

Because there is so much hate it the comments it just goes to show how quality it is as a poem , so controversial with so many alternative interpretations . I love it . It says it how it is ,it’s put life in a whole new perspective and that’s why I think this poem is so good because it means something different to every individual that reads it.

[@spoopi.twinkie7271]

See that's what I thought but it has to be some sort of metaphor that I cannot comprehend.

[@zerg113]

@@spoopi.twinkie7271 it either means as a child he missed nothing but as he grew older things passed him by with out him noticing. Or it ment as a child he was very competitive and needed to win but when he got older he lost his sense of competition rendering "the game" ( which could be a metaphor for life) pointless.

[@imperfectmind8846]

I think it has to be more of a pessimism and optimism thing. He would always win when he was young and carefree but as he got older he became more doubtful of himself and held a more pessimistic (or even just a more realistic) view.
