I began my spiritual awakening after my flying accident in May of
1997. By "awakening" I refer to the awareness of what is within and
all around us, an awareness of past events, which occurred in my
life, even as early as when I was about 5 years old. It is
precisely for this reason that I have included parts of my whole
life in this book, to underscore the extent to which our whole
lives and events are well orchestrated for a magnificent purpose.
Not manipulated as puppets on a string, but collected lovingly by
large caring hands that scoop up the broken fragments and weave
them together as threads in a tapestry. Or like a potter who
re-works the clay, using every portion of it to re-mold it into a
shape of His design. But this only occurs once the potter has been
allowed to model the dough, when we turn ourselves in for service.
Little did I realize along the way that my calling would be a
religious one. Along I went in my merry life, as many of us do, not
knowing specifically what my future might bring and lacking His
curious piercing foresight, I never realized the impact of what was
actually happening today, let alone some of the fabulous purposes
that could be wrought from the events of yesterday. As I went
through my prior life, (by the way, I will use this term from now
on in the book to describe my life "prior" to the flying accident)
I went along growing up with all of our typical earthly
accomplishment needs. The childhood accomplishments, teenage, and
even adult needs, as we perceive them to be diligently and
respectively accomplished. From the basic needs to the social
psychological needs of even surpassing the "Jones's." No pun
intended but most people can't handle merely keeping up with the
Jones's but are actually taught to top them in the higher education
levels of our training. I, like some "fortunate" individuals, had
succeeded in attaining my Masters Degree of International Business
Administration at one of the most highly acclaimed Graduate Schools
of this country. Miami University, located in the international hub
of the United States, was noted as being one of the best Graduate
Schools in the International Business arena. In addition to all the
above mentioned drives and ambitions, I also had another need, a
need to attain high levels of adrenalin in my blood for short
periods of times during the month. Yes at least once a month but
preferably once a week I went through my entire life searching for
a constant supply and ever increasing potency of adrenalin. I went
from dirt bike riding as a kid to flat tracking as a teenager. From
scuba diving with sharks over 19 feet long to sky diving in college
after a drunken bet the night before, this was not enough What
always intrigued me was the art of flying and boy was it an art.
Stunt flying was my favorite source of adrenalin and an artistic
one at that, maybe not a Rembrandt but most certainly a well worked
Picasso, from the gentle curves to the rash Lomshavocks, a work of
art indeed As I was saying in the beginning of this Preface, I
began my spiritual awakening after my flying accident in May of
1997. Awakening is the awareness of what is within and all around
us; awareness of some very real and fantastic things that started
to happen, an awareness of past, and now present events, which
occurred in my life. I have had an exciting life, no doubt, as
shown in part during my descriptions in chapter 3, "Growing Years
Of Adventure."
