Thank you so much to everyone at the M.O.D and the RAF and to all who have kindly supported my writing.

Flying high

July 5, 2026

Flying high on empty,
flying high with nothing at all,
no, not a penny in the world barely,
but I am happy,
yes, I am truly happy,
and I am not brought low,
by the anxieties of most people’s lives,
because life lived simply is a better life for me,
and I live simply, and it is extremely good for me,
and life lived in such a way is much more enjoyable,
and I do not want for much,
and I do not desire great extravagance,
and things that I can barely afford,
and things that I waste far too much time upon,
things that have overinflated values,
expensive things that do no good for me at all,
so, yes, a simple life for me is the best way for me,
and the only way for me live,
so, a simple life it is,
and how great I feel,
with barely any material possessions at all.
