Hive Open Mic Week #109: Flying Without Wings by Westlife - Cover by/de @Peaq (ENG-ESP)
Just thinking of the term Paper Kites, my mind quickly breezes through the thoughts of freedom, flight, movement, and the likes. These concepts come with a feeling that an individual experiences. This feeling can be experienced in diverse ways by different people.
At a first glance of this week’s theme, I had just the perfect song that was on repeat in my head. This song is really dear to my heart and I believe it has the same effect on a lot of people as well.
The song is by one of my favourite groups of all time. They made so many timeless songs that to this day would give you the chills and goosebumps. I am speaking of none other than the incredible Westlife.
This song basically talks about how different people experience a euphoric state in diverse ways. For some, it could be through the interactions with their children, through the words of people while for others, it could be through their loved ones, through sharing quiet times or morning rise but not limited to these situations as the song goes on to list these cases.
Furthermore, in a bid to promote the theme for this week, “Paper Kites”, I bring to you “Flying Without Wings by Westlife”. I know you know this song but even though you are hearing it for the first time, kindly do me the honour and sing along. Alternatively, sit back and enjoy this timeless song.
As always, I want to seize this opportunity to sincerely appreciate you for regularly tuning in. I don’t feel entitled to your time, support, encouragement, upvotes, comments, etc but you freely give to me. I am super grateful and don’t take it for granted. Thank you so much for your precious time. Do have a fruitful day!
Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
Some in their solitary nights
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
You've got to fight for every dream
'Cause who's to know
Which one you let go
Would have made you complete
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say, "I love you"
In any given time or place
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
'Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings
And you'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings

Sólo con pensar en el término cometas de papel, mi mente rápidamente se sumerge en pensamientos de libertad, vuelo, movimiento y similares. Estos conceptos van acompañados de una sensación que experimenta el individuo. Esta sensación puede ser experimentada de diversas maneras por diferentes personas.
En un primer vistazo al tema de esta semana, tenía la canción perfecta que se repetía en mi cabeza. Esta canción me gusta mucho y creo que tiene el mismo efecto en mucha gente.
La canción es de uno de mis grupos favoritos de todos los tiempos. Hicieron tantas canciones atemporales que a día de hoy te ponen los pelos de punta. Me refiero nada menos que a los increíbles Westlife.
Esta canción habla básicamente de cómo diferentes personas experimentan un estado de euforia de diversas maneras. Para algunos, podría ser a través de las interacciones con sus hijos, a través de las palabras de la gente, mientras que para otros, podría ser a través de sus seres queridos, a través de compartir momentos de tranquilidad o de levantarse por la mañana, pero no se limita a estas situaciones, ya que la canción continúa enumerando estos casos.
Además, para promover el tema de esta semana, "Cometas de papel", os traigo "Flying Without Wings de Westlife". Sé que conocéis esta canción, pero aunque sea la primera vez que la escucháis, hacedme el honor de cantarla. O bien, siéntate y disfruta de esta canción intemporal.
Como siempre, quiero aprovechar esta oportunidad para agradecerte sinceramente que me sintonices regularmente. No me siento con derecho a vuestro tiempo, apoyo, ánimos, upvotes, comentarios, etc., pero vosotros me lo dais libremente. Estoy súper agradecida y no lo doy por sentado. Muchas gracias por vuestro precioso tiempo. ¡Que tengáis un día fructífero!
Todo el mundo está buscando ese algo
Una cosa que lo hace todo completo
Lo encontrarás en los lugares más extraños
Lugares donde nunca supiste que podría estar
Algunos lo encuentran en los ojos de su amante
Quién puede negar la alegría que trae
Cuando has encontrado esa cosa especial
Estás volando sin alas
Algunos en sus noches de soledad
Tú lo encontrarás en las palabras de los demás
Una simple frase puede hacerte reír o llorar
Del tipo que aprecias toda tu vida
Y cuando sabes lo mucho que significa
Has encontrado esa cosa especial
Vuelas sin alas
Tienes que luchar por cada sueño
Porque quién va a saber
Cuál dejaste ir
Te habría hecho completo
Ver el amanecer en tu cara
Saber que puedo decir "te quiero"
En cualquier momento o lugar
Son las cosas que te hacen mía
Y es como volar sin alas
Porque tú eres mi cosa especial
Estoy volando sin alas
Y tú serás donde termine
Estoy volando sin alas
Y esa es la alegría que traes
Estoy volando sin alas
Compositores: Steven McCutcheon / Wayne Anthony Hector

They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.
They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
