For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to fly.

As a child, I would lay out in the grass looking up in the sky, watching the airplanes go by and fantasize about being a pilot myself.

I especially wanted to be a jet fighter pilot — just for the the thrill!

As the years came and went, life happened and the dream of flying became even more elusive.

Then in a moment that all changed.

That moment was due to the opportunity that presented itself this summer to go up for a sample flying lesson.

During this lesson as I was introduced to a new type of aircraft — an Advanced Ultralight. In the United States they are called Light Sport Aircraft (LSA).

Now it is possible — It is within reach!

I will soon be able to realize my dream of flying!

Dreams can become reality.

What about your dreams?

Whatever your dream is, keep it alive.

You do not know how or when it will be may come into reality, but if you stay open to the possibility, it may happen for you sooner than you think.

No matter what your dream is, keep it alive.

As always, your comments are welcome. You may even want to share something about your dream!

All the best,
Derrall
