May God bless all of us
A
business man was late for his flight. He reached the boarding gate just before
it closed. Sweating and out of breath, he scanned his boarding pass at the
counter and quickly made his way to the plane. Arriving at his seat, he greeted
his companions a middle-aged woman sitting at the window, and a little
girl sitting on the aisle seat. After stowing his bag above, he took his place
between them.
After
the flight took off, he began a conversation with the little girl. She appeared
to be about the same age as his daughter and was busy with her coloring book.
He asked her a few usual questions, such as her age (eight), her hobbies
(cartoons and drawing), as well as her favorite animal (horses are pretty, but
she just loved cats).He found it strange that such a young girl would be
traveling alone, but he kept his thoughts to himself and decided to keep an eye
on her to make sure she was okay.
About
an hour into the flight, the plane suddenly began experiencing extreme
turbulence. The pilot came over the PA system and told everyone to fasten their
seat belts and remain calm, as they had encountered rough weather.
Several
times over the next half hour the plane made drastic dips and turns, shaking
all the while. Some people began crying, and many like the woman in the
window seating were praying intently.The man was sweating and clenching his
seat as tightly as he could, and exclaim “Oh my God!” with each increasingly
violent shake of the plane.
Meanwhile,
the little girl was sitting quietly beside him in her seat. Her coloring book
and crayons were put away neatly in the seat pocket in front of her, and her
hands were calmly resting on her legs. Incredibly, she didn't seem worried all.
Then,
just as suddenly as it had begun, the turbulence ended. The pilot came on a few
minutes later to apologize for the bumpy ride and to announce that they would
be landing soon. As the plane began its descent, the man said to the little
girl, “You are just a little girl, but I have never met a braver person in all
my life! Tell me, dear, how is it that you remained so calm while all of us
adults were so afraid?”
Looking him in the eyes, she said, My Father
is the Pilot, and He's Taking Me Home."
