I don't miss airline flying but do miss the "high" from chasing the "dream".
I see the same foolish youthful exuberance commonly in new pilots today. The gold fever of chasing an unrealistic dream that largely only exists in the mind of the afflicted. My aim is to help divert some here from blowing a fortune on an illusion and causing lasting damage to ones life.
I concede that many in aviation belong there and have at it. Someone has to do it after all. Not me however, I will sleep in my own bed and live my life among my friends and family. I shall remain in service of occupations that also serve me and grounded in reality that guides towards better decision making for an improved tomorrow.
Cordially;
Skyhigh
