Ariel view of Sepang.

No matter how many times I have looked out from an aircraft window, the view of the terra firma below never ceases to amaze me. That is the reason why I like window seats. The unfolding landscape provides a sense of detachment. The moment the plane takes off, no matter where the destination, no matter what I have left behind, serenity envelopes me. For the duration of the flight, I neither worry nor fret. It is amidst the continuous humming of the jet engines and the unusual perspective up there that I usually find peace.
