“I have found adventure in flying, in world travel, in business, and even close at hand… Adventure is a state of mind – and spirit.”  Jacqueline Cochran

I’m flying home to Vancouver, BC tomorrow.  My original itinerary had me returning home last Friday, but I extended my stay when my Granddaughter’s Daddy had Quintuple Bypass Surgery last week.  If you’ve been following my posts, you  know that I am taking the baby home with me for a few weeks to give Mommy and Daddy some “space” to deal with his recovery.  

As I was packing, I reflected on how many times I fly now.   I used to avoid flying as much as possible, and would need an Ativan to relax me when I flew.  I was an absolute basket case otherwise.  About 12 years ago I went through some life altering experiences that changed my whole perception of flying, and of dying.  I now fly quite often with no problem whatsoever . . . not an ounce of anxiety.  I look forward to it in fact . . . as I am able to travel such great distances in such short times to see people and places that I love and am passionate about.  Being able to fly, and being able to fly often, is a real blessing in my life . . .
