Hello friends, airplanes are considered one of the safest means of transport in the world, even given this reality, taking the first air trip is a taboo in the lives of a large part of the world's population, the human mind is hilarious and fearful, we always imagine that the worse could happen in our turn.
My first plane flight was a mix of unusual situations, where fear, despair, anxiety and the desire to give up were present even after starting the flight. The first problem happened at the airport, one of the family members' suitcases didn't arrive with the others, I immediately thought, it's a sign to give up on this trip, but an employee brought it right away. I kept trying to find a justification to give up on boarding. You might think, I just had to stay at home, what would my son and family think, everyone's ticket was booked.
When it was time to board, my legs were cold, I don't know how I managed to climb that ramp, my body desperate on the inside and encouraging others to move forward on the outside, a tense situation. At takeoff I had my eyes closed, I prayed, I said I was taking a nap, HAHAHAAAA, I didn't want to show others that I was scared, I just mentioned it when I arrived.
When I was in the air, the feelings of fear were overshadowed by the aerial beauty, however, 30 minutes after the flight came the news that killed me inside, the commander said that we would go through turbulence, my friends, I passed away in my mind at that moment, I imagined , it's over. I looked from the side, everyone desperately tightening their seat belts, so as not to show the feeling of imminent end, i said: calm down people, it's normal. My mind: we die!
The turbulence was minimal, but it was scary, watching films with tragic endings on a plane ends up causing unnecessary fear. After almost two hours of travel, we arrived at our destination. I'm honest in saying, I just didn't kiss the ground when I arrived out of embarrassment, but I've never been so grateful for being on land. I've taken several trips, none of them were like the first, however, they all seem to be the first trip, the fear of heights always hangs in the air.
