I have always wanted to fly a kite. It would be so exciting to fly a beautiful or a kite with cool design, seeing it flying higher and higher. Yet I was told it actually looks easier than it is to fly a kite. Beginners may find it miserable at flying a kite for the first few times.

There are tips about how to fly a kite. You have to acquire the piloting skills to keep the kite in the air. You can only master this skill through a lot of practices and trial and error. It is a challenging process.

The first and foremost of things we need to learn is to be patient. Flying a kite, especially a big one requires a strong and steady wind to fly it properly. In that case, the weather is playing a major role. However, you and I have absolutely no control about this factor. The kite will only fly better if the wind is stronger in order for us to have more effective controls. If we try to fly the kite in a light breeze, we won’t be able to control the kite. In this situation, pulling the control lines will simply pull the kite toward us rather than warp the wings.

The flying kite philosophy explains it all about navigating our life. We have to be really patient to deal with matters we’re encountering in life. Forcing them hard is just like pulling the control lines of the kite, instead of making it flying higher, we’ll end up dropping the kite or possibly losing it if we are less skillful.

Flying a kite should be fun. For a novice like myself, I will surely find it hard and almost impossible to control the roll and the pitch. Nevertheless, I’m sure you and I will get better and better as time goes by with more experience and practice. Plus we already knew the valuable tips in how to fly a kite. Let’s just not worry or stress but sit back and relax to wait for the perfect weather condition to fly our kites. Remember to not hang on to the tail of the kite too tight if the wind doesn't induce an optimal condition of flying the kite, especially if we want to fly it higher!
