A LETTER from ONE LUCKY BOY J

Thousands of boys and girls, when they were young, dreamed about having a life in the sky among the clouds. Unfortunately, not many of them upon becoming adults, stayed true to their dreams. I was not one of the majority(უმრავლესობა). I never thought that I would be a flight attendant, but destiny(იღბალი) had other plans.

When I was 19, I won a contest(კონკურსი) sponsored by Georgian airlines. The prize was a free education in university in Germany. There I learned to be a flight attendant(სტუარდი). I completed my studies with excellent marks and returned to Georgia to begin my work.

I have happy memories of this time flying with my new colleagues. It was great! I have many interesting and funny stories from this time in my life. I spoke with many famous people and saw beautiful cities both in Georgia and abroad.

Too quickly that time of my life has passed, and I now have a very busy career in public relations(ურთიერთობები). Recently the old passion(ლტოლვა) to fly returned, and I enrolled in flight school to train as a pilot. I think that people who once take the controls of an airplane, manoeuvre(გადაადგილება) it and feel its power, forever stay enchanted(მოჯადოვებული) with the sky.Moreover you may also know that it’s a very well payed job, so agree this is a good motivation too.

1.   What was the dream of lots of kids in their childhood ?

2.   Did the author want to be a pilot from the very beginning?

3.   What happened when he was nineteen ?

6.   Is he pleased with his job?

7.   What are his future plans ?
