Gliding gave me a reason to look up at the sky and take notice of the clouds, the wind etc.When I was a teenager learning to fly it was time spent with my Dad at the airfield and flying together which is very precious as he is no longer around. Now it gives me a sense of achievement as there are constantly new goals to reach for. Also, when flying I just think about flying, no time to dwell or ruminate on troubles elsewhere in life!!!
