Grandma's Journey

I hope everyone is having a happy, healthy, and safe Labor Day weekend! Life is funny... Some people appear to be born with adventurous streaks whereas some appear to acquire it over time while others never seem to quite pick it up. I am proud to announce to the world, hell I would love to shout it from the rooftop regarding my grandmother's latest accomplishments. My grandmother is in her late 70's and she has finally accomplished a fear she has held for decades. She finally flew on two planes (round trip) this past weekend! She went to a family reunion and the drive was just not an option for some family members who planned to attend and flying was (of course) the preferred method. My grandmother agreed months ago that she would make her maiden flight voyage but no one was quite sure if she would go through with it. Well she did and we are all happy that she did. She absolutely loved it! Flying that is. We, rather I am proud to gloat about her accomplishments. She may have waited almost 80 years to do this, but she finally did it. Many people claim that they will or want to accomplish great things but some postpone and postpone and frankly never get around to accomplishing their dreams within their lifetime. But my grandmother fortunately, lived to see the day that she could experience one of the modern marvels of the 20th century (aviation technology) modern day flight. Go Grandma, you are the best. I am happy your trip went well and that you loved the experience. If grandma can accomplish a life-long fear in her 70's this could be an inspirational story for others because frankly it is never to late to start living your life and/or getting to your truth!
