  I think the two most important lessons you can learn in life are that no one is going to make you successful except yourself, don't go through life thinking that you can fall into success and know that everything you want in life you will have to earn for yourself, and the second thing is, do what makes you happiest, or else what is the point of it all anyhow. I can honestly say that I am happier now than I have ever been. I am now an officer in the Army, and am currently in flight school. It has been 3 years in the making, but I am finally here, and it was worth every bit of the work it took to get here. I thoroughly enjoy being an officer, it is a completely different world, and I now have a whole new outlook on the Army. I haven't been very happy with being in the Army since I joined 3 years ago, and the last year that I spent at Fort Bragg was a very miserable year, but I am now very content with the Army and I love being a pilot. Something great did come from being at Fort Bragg though, and that was the chance to meet Margaret. She is an amazing girlfriend and just an incredible person. I couldn't ask for more love and support, and I am a lot happier because of her. She makes life wonderful.
