As the autopilot took me the rest of the way, I just watch in awe as the horizon turned from black, to a deep red, then to a light orange witha purplish sky. So still, smooth and breathtaking. I couldn’t believe my eyes and took in every last ounce of the rising sun.
I thank God for moments like this. There is no other way to say it. It is moments like this that I just love being a pilot. But during these times I can’t help but reflect back on my own personal journey and realize that it’s been a road that hasn’t always been easy, but the moments like this sure make it worth it.
