Rummaging through the millions of photos I have from India I ran across this one. It was taken in Bangalore this past October. J had flown me out (commercially), to meet up with him, for a few days of R & R in a quaint hotel. (Perks of the job).
Just before we took off I had the co-pilot snap a pic. It’s one of my favorites. It captures us perfectly. J, looking quite professional, in front of his flying machine. And I, a bit smug, I must admit, because I was being chartered home by my own personal pilot. I remember looking out the window thinking, Life is good. And I’m the luckiest girl in the world right now.
I looked at J, in the cockpit, and my heart burst with pride.
I thought to myself, Today is a good day. No. Today is a beautiful day.
Moments like this make all the stress, strife, and difficulty of living in India, worth it.
