I’m torn between living with reason and purpose and a sense of adventure. There are the great adventurers who pursue their passions while courting danger.(throwing caution to the wind…) Still – a good thought to ponder.
My version on this story was a poem called Daedalus Wings.
True, wise and at the end of the day it all comes down to balance! Great words for today my fiend, just what I needed to read… We are forever swinging one way then the other… Still waiting for the scales to come to stillness… Have a good day driven by a mix of the two! 😀
random rants ruminations ramblings 
Powerful capture of an old story!

Brilliant Kunal. And just the way I like it, in the shortest possible form, a most power packed message. I also had written about Icarus here:

Such a wise warning. I’ve been Icarus and know what it is like to fall from such heights.
