 Counting My Blessings
It's about 10:00 PM here. I find myself, as I often do, wondering how I deserve such a wonderful wife. In August of this year, I lost my full-time "real" job at the bank and we decided to make a push to use my newly earned CFI certificate. I now work at a flight school earning a small fraction of the income I once did. Truth is, I can't help but to feel a little loser-ish. I'll be 35 next month, making me the oldest instructor at the flight school. All my friends have good paying jobs, as I once did. My wife knows that I wasn't able to pursue flying very aggresively when I worked at the bank all week long, and it was her idea for me to do this when I lost my job. Thankfully, she works and earns a decent income, and she's behind me all the way. I wish I wasn't so hard on myself right now and that I could pay her back for all these years of support and love.
Can anyone out there relate? |
