With an unwavering confidence that this was his calling, he passionately devoured information about his dream career.
Years later David realized his dream, becoming a flight attendant with American Airlines. But David's life long love affair with the travel industry was quickly tainted by toxic interactions that spread like a cancer to co-workers and the passengers he once attentively served. David's calling had become a yoke which trapped him in a downward spiral of defeat and despair. Crash landing on a therapist's couch, David was able to reclaim his childhood enthusiasm.
