In The skies, Me


It was our vacation for me and my family! My father and mother decided to go to Abu Dhabi. I was very excited to visit this city. It takes 1 hour flight trip from Riyadh. We went to the airport and my hands were sweating and shaking. In fact, all my body was shaking and sweating. It was the scariest moments in my life. It is miracle to be in that flight.

In the take- off moments I was sweating more and more. I took my sunglasses to cover my face so nobody can notice my face. I prayed a lot. When it was the moments for the airplane to land I felt that strong explosion and fire in the airplane!

Yes, I “felt” that. It did not happen! Airplanes were my biggest fear. I just started to think deeply after that drama I lived how can I get rid of my biggest fear. A lot of reading airplanes in everything related to it like airports, Boeing, Airbus, accidents, models, airlines companies and airplanes games was my key to force myself to go for short trips by plane. My fear was less but did not disappear. I was choosing my seat in the middle of the airplane I just chose to go away from the window seats so I cannot see how far we are from the land. I do not want see anything of that scary views.

I got an invitation from a company that celebrating their first flight. They wanted me to be in their first flight. I did not want to go but I had to because it was part of my job to cover their event.  My luck brought me to window seat that I did not want. It was sunny and clear in that day. I just loved everything in that trip. The landscape from the sky was amazing! I enjoyed a lot!

Was that from the window seat? I think yes! It was my fear to look out from the window but it was my treatment also!

I think my readings made an expert in something I did not like. I think also that my fear is now my desire. It took time from me to realize that It was my choice to love airplanes or no. It was my choice to enjoy or to sweat from it.

I just chose to love it. Like now.
