WINDOW SEAT
other seat. Window seat is closest to the window while the other seats are away from the window. So far so good. The seat within means the interior of plane, your hosts going up & down the gully, in identical outfits and you watching them helplessly, without being allowed to leave the seat or shift the posture. The reprimand is repeated over & over again to warn you to keep the ' seat straight ' and remain buckled and belt fastened.
You are virtually caged whereas peacocks move about without purpose and without your consent or permission. Before we describe the experiences of one, who is at the window seat, with the shade up or down, we would tackle the passengers sitting ' within '. They have the same monotony, same gully, same air-hostess to watch and follow with eyes throughout the journey and looking at the only cock-pit door, which is mostly kept shut. Insiders watch, see and feel soon bored watching the shoulders, tresses, backs, child and infants, bags and over-head cabins, cries and smiles, servings and tea trays, lights and calls, water and drinks and the watchful eyes of warden and the other crew ' on board '. To the contrary, the one who is at the window seat, is connected to the outside world, to know and watch what is happening outside the plane; in air but watching those who are grounded; you are aware, awake, watching and waiting and following the nice take-off and relieving landing, the actual touch down and the run-away running away fast with formidable speed to utter belief and much relief. God is outside and Pilot is inside; nature is watched, appreciated and experienced through the window which is open but closed to air, the mystic earth, the majestic creations, the cloud patterns and broken movements, the open sky, the towers down below, the roofs and tops, to the human insects and match-box size vehicles.
