Thoughts From Cruising Altitude

Whenever I fly, I look forward to the time away from real life; to being thousands of miles in the sky with no communication to the hustle of everyday life on the ground.  There is something so exhilarating about being in the sky amongst the clouds and what feels like so close to the sun.  As children we are taught that heaven can be found in the sky way above the clouds, so being above those clouds naturally makes me feel close to those who have gone before me and that alone gives me a feeling of peace.

Flying to San Diego last week was no different but the clouds that we passed through triggered me into a deep thought about being content.  For the past few months I have felt so content in life. I feel like I am doing what I was meant to do on this Earth and I am trusting God's plan for me. I have found a dream that I am pursing and will continue to pursue, because it just feels right. That doesn’t mean, however, that those dreams will come easy and without resistance. These are the thoughts that went through my mind when we were passing through these clouds on my way out west. Though these clouds were obstacles in the path of this flight and the turbulence disturbed its journey, there was still beauty in resistance and everything came out alright. This analogy aligns perfectly with the experiences I am running into while chasing my dreams.
