I accomplished a major milestone in my life tonight. It's something I have wanted to do since I was a teenager, but I never had a push to get it done. I made the decision to do it a few years ago but wasn't able to find an opportunity at the time. Last year I had no real desire to go through the process but this year I finally achieved my goal. I was worried because I didn't grow up in that environment. Most people go through it as teenagers and I didn't have a role model to look up to, or learn from. Then I thought it would be awkward. Me being in my thirties in a room full of young kids. And since I don't have very much experience I was worried I would fail. Tuesday as I walked into the building I met the instructor. He was one of my customers. And even better, I was surrounded by people my age. I didn't really have time to study between Tuesday and today so I was still worried tonight when it was time to take the exam. I passed... what a relief. After receiving my certificate I left feeling like I had accomplished something I should have done many years ago. The best part is tomorrow, I will be a licensed hunter.
