In 1981, on this same day, Ron Clark, Rocky Aoki and Larry Newman ballooned from Nagashima, Japan to Covelo, California in the Double Eagle V, the first balloon to ever cross the Atlantic. The wishes of those three intrepid explorers came true on this day and now here is an opportunity for you to explore and conquer new horizons using balloons of your very own.
Get a plain white balloon and fill it with helium. Knot and tie it with a tail of nine or 18 inches of red ribbon, sting or yarn. With a new black marker used specifically for this adjustment, write a dearly held wish or desire on the balloon and then sign and date it.
Now, take this circle of your life to any open space on any sunny day and let your wish go to the 'mouth of the sky dragon.' Watch your balloon fly high and towards the horizon until you can no longer see it. That means the sky dragon has swallowed it and will grant your wish within one year's time.
Ancient advice with a contemporary spin, just what every explorer needs to conquer new territory.
