This is a picture of the pilot examiner on the left handing me my private pilot certificate after successfully completing my flight test.
For the past 2 1/2 years I have had flown with what is called a Sport Pilot Certificate. An earlier blog post details that event. It enabled me to fly a two seat airplane with certain conditions attached, including limited gross weight, day time flying, etc. And now I am able to fly bigger faster airplanes, and carry more passengers, and at night lifting most of the restrictions of the Sport License.
Another reason for not writing lately, has been because I am doubting there is any interest in what I have been posting. I suppose it is because blog posts do not generally get much feed back from casual readers. I do invest a lot of time and effort into each post I write, and also write a lot of drafts, that I do not post until I am happy with the result. Perhaps I have lost sight of a higher purpose?
We often hear people say, that if one person is helped by what we do, then it is all worth it. And that can be true to some extent, but I also think that it is a way of saying that we want our efforts to matter. A higher purpose is to write what God has placed on my heart to write, and leave the results up to Him! Even if a result is that I can read my own posts from the past, and be reminded of the truths I have learned in the past. Besides that; just maybe God has purposed a blog post or two, to matter to a casual reader or two.
While the overtime I have been working does not show any immediate indication of slowing down, and I still will have limited free time to write blog posts for a while; I will still try to be more frequent than I certainly have been till now. My goal is still to be obedient to what He would have me do. God Is Still Speaking! I Am Still Listening.
