on a lifelong journey without all the great things mothers teach and do for their children. For the lessons that this taught me were bountiful it was the negativity that ultimately brought out the positivity in me.

In so they brought me up with a lot of love and care which leaves me eternally grateful to them. For the next fourteen years I would live with my…

From space one is able to marvel at the world, appreciate every aspect from a spectators view. The journey from the launch pad to space orbit is short, taking about 8.5 minutes.
