    When I'm flying by myself, it's the one time I have complete focus on how much I love my wife (and her as my girlfriend and fiancé over the last 10 years until we got married in June). I'm sure that sounds strange... It's just that anything could go wrong on a plane and you're probably not gonna make it if something bad does happen. That feeling of wanting to protect her, to keep her safe, to never see her sad - that all comes full force on flights. Say whatever you want about religion, but I always say a prayer during takeoff and landing that we get where we're going safely, and that I get back to her safely. I've done that for 10+ years, every flight.

    If we're together I still do the same thing, but I at least take comfort in the fact that if something bad did happen, we're together. Heavy thoughts.
