No, I’m not saying I’ll never get on an airplane again, but I won’t unless it’s the only good way to get somewhere I need to go! \u00a0For the last 11 years I’ve had a love\/hate relationship with commercial flying, mostly hate. I think flying usually means your having to leave home, where you would rather be, or coming home tired from a long arduous trip. \u00a0A lot of my friends say you must be sorry to see the Nikon Tech Rep life in your rear view mirror? \u00a0Not really. \u00a0I will miss the great people I’ve worked with, some of my customers, but I won’t miss the reports, and some of the events that I always dreaded. \u00a0I’ve been honored to be part of such a great team, but all things come to an end, eventually.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The end of one thing is the beginning of another, and change, while hard, is good. \u00a0I have tried very hard to live by one principle, whatever God wants, is what I want. \u00a0I believe God always has a plan, and it is for your good, and His glory. \u00a0If I can live a life that ends in those two conditions, I might even be o.k. with getting on another airplane, if that’s what He wants…..<\/p>\n

Blessings,<\/p>\n
