I am typing on my blackberry at 30,000 feet, flying on a Delta plane towards Salt Lake and ultimately Dallas. The plane flies smooth for awhile and then hits patches of bumpy air. I can feel the plane make small adjustments to its course along the way. Every once in awhile the Captain, who loves to say "You All," gives us a quick update. We are currently moving through the ski, and I am along for the ride. As I think about my flight I find myself smiling about how my life is very similar to flying. I fly along smoothly for periods of time without a concern. I can even put things on auto pilot and not pay to much attention. Then, without much warning the turbulence hits, life becomes bumpy. I'm not always sure what hit me or why. Sometimes I am caught without a seat belt on. When the rough ride starts I try to make all kinds of adjustments to get back to the smooth air. Funny thing in a way I am along for the ride. In other ways I am the captain, setting the course and trying to pilot my way through. Right now I am trying to pilot through Katee moving back home, that's why I am flying at the moment, Derek getting married, changes in how Darla and I are doing marriage, jobs, economy, and self. I realize that I fly my own plane and you fly yours. Sometimes we have the same flight plan and sometimes we don't. The mid course adjustments I am making will either make the flight more smooth or more rough, I get to decide how to navigate. I can't control what will hit, but I can decide how to fly through it. .Hoping your sky's are friendly. Rick Samuelson Administrator Avamere Rehab of King City
