"Sometimes I go about in pity for myself, and all the while, a great wind carries me across the sky."

You can look at this in a spiritual tone .....
Like the wind beneath your wings -

When you are in pity you are stuck and obsessing about negative things.
But "life goes on" .....
and a GREAT WIND
regardless of anything else
CARRIES you through life

Like that Christian saying about footprints in the sand.
The person asks God - you always said you would be by my side.
But, there are only one set of foot prints in the sand.

God replied - Those are the times, when I needed to carry you.
