It was a rare incident that Friday night. A guy friend (my bestfriend’s husband actually) invited me over for a cup of coffee. We both wanted to head home early but the aroma of Starbucks was too appealing. We couldn’t resist. Plus, I was also gimmickless that night, so I thought a cup of coffee and a quick chat with a friend wouldn’t hurt. So there, nattered about office work, the excitement of how less stressful the next weeks will be since the bosses are goin to Chicago, family life and careers. I’ve always thought of this friend as the happy-go-lucky type, so when the topic about his ailing dad came up, I somehow saw the “son” side of him. Then we talked about our careers, he’s been constantly telling he never wanted to be in sales, but he was good at it. I told him what I wanted. I wanted to fly. I wanted to travel. I wanted to be an F.A. Years back, I knew I wanted to become one. I got too excited getting into college not realizing that my dreams of being a stewardess slowly faded away. Sigh. I wish I could turn back time.
Maybe if that dream materialized a long time ago, I wouldn’t be here now. I’ve probably gone to many places already, made friends with different people. But the again, I knew it wasn’t time yet. I needed to be fully-equipped. I know God really planned that I meet the gays first, meet more friends, spend more time with my family especially my mom, and experience heartbreaks. He knew I needed to create a tough groundwork.
I will be missing a lot I know. Oftentimes, I ask myself if I’m really ready to leave everything behind, and gradually start on that delayed dream. But one can never tell when you’re ready.
I’m thrilled! I know its gonna be a tedious tiring process. But it’s time. I need to fly. I need to take off. |
