Another reveal today. One of the reasons I began the journey is so that I could fit in the seat of a plane. Flying is both humiliating and degrading if you weigh a lot. But, fly I must for I am going on an sub-journey to the overarching journey. I am going to Israel. The result of a generous donor allowing myself and others the opportunity to see the Holy Land. It is an honor and a solemn privilege to go but one that at first had given me pause. I was used to the idea of suffering through a short flight but this one is going to be for a long time. I feel that I've lost sufficient weight to cut down on the pain but only experience will tell. Please understand its not the airlines fault the seats are so small, its mine for having allowed myself to be put in the situation. But, even with misgivings, I think this will be a valuable lesson to the testimony of will power. In another few months, it will get easier and in either case God will get the glory of the triumph.
I will be writing tomorrow but out for nine days afterward. When I return, I'll let you know all about it. For now, I am actually looking forward to the challenge. My hope is that all will go well.
Remember, October 30 is on the way.
