Leap of Courage! Leap of Faith!

My son who just never was sure of what he wanted to do woke up one morning smiling .  He had decided what he wanted to do with his life.  As a senior he had a hard time deciding what he wanted to be.  He struggle with this, and one night we told him to leave it to God and trust him to open his eyes to the future.  Well boy did he, he knows without a doubt he wants to be a Pilot.  The very next day he signed up and got excepted with the Emory Riddle program in Aeronautical Engineering.  Then he signed up for flight school and believe it or not was able to start flying that day.  I mean like come on over we have a opening, you can start today.  This I tell you is very rare.  So we went over for a tour and his instructor said grab your flight equipment lets go.  I almost passed out. He took off and was gone in 15 minutes.  With Rick and I watching from the ground, and my heart in my throat!  My son came back with a Hugh grin on his face and joy in his heart.  He was addicted and has been flying for about a month 3 times a week. He fly's with his instructor but handles everything himself, he talks, sleeps and does everything  about flying.  He even changed his diet to only healthy, no soda!  WOW he wants to fly commercial jets and is planing on joining the air force reserves.  He know in his heart that this is his life's purpose and he tells us of flying through clouds and the joy he feels in the sky so close to God, to him this is it! I stand amazed at the change in my son, all fear of the future is gone and a positive feeling of knowing he is doing what is meant to be. The kid that worried about the future has taken control of it and is so excited about the future.  His gaol is in 5 years to be a pilot like no other! WOW!!!!
