Grateful for a chance

The Uber driver that took me to the airport was just amazed by my work and my looks, he even asked if I was single so that he could set his son up with me. He wished me luck for the interview and said he had a feeling that I was going to get it. When I came back that night, my Uber driver was a sweet lady who reassured me of the same thing.

I am thinking about this because there is a right time for everything and today is the right time to wonder about this particular phase of my life. Let me tell you a little more about myself. I am an engineer with a master's degree in control theory and am currently enrolled in a doctoral program. Being a student at this age is not fun. My friends have moved on in their lives and are successful in their jobs, are aspiring home-owners and parents. My family has just moved on and has stopped worrying about me, since I am a grown up.
