Description
Instructor: You're getting better and better kid! You got some talent in you.Fred: Thank you, sir! I'm happy to hear that. I hope I can gain a lot more experience in the future.
Instructor: Any goals?
Fred: Well, I don’t know, I'll see where life leads me…
Instructor: You're still young, you absolutely HAVE to widen your horizon to get better! The world is wide open for a little eagle like you and is just waiting to be discovered.
Fred: I'm going to do my best sir!
Instructor: Of course. But listen kid, I'll give you some advice. A license or being able to fly doesn’t make you a pro. Experience is the key to success, most of the time you make it, sometimes you need multiple tries, or fail. Like you hanging in that tree the other day. Learn from mistakes and grow stronger, so the next time you know what to do.
Fred: Oh yeah, I sure don’t want to get stuck in a tree again…. Did anything like this happen to you at some point?
Instructor: Yeah but it wasn’t too bad like your accident, when I was in Afghanistan with the army years ago I hit the ground hard when I landed and face-planted myself in the dirt. But that was my fault since I was so keen on whooping terrorists that I forgot the ground beneath me! My entire rib cage hurt the next week.
Fred: Ouch… That had to be really bad. Do you mind telling me more?
Instructor: Yeah, go figure! I have a lot more of that. What you should also know, is that you should never… (*talking becomes inaudible as they keep on walking*)

Traditonal artwork practice, and I brought back Fred's skydiving instructor! Here he’s giving Fred some useful advice for his future, along with some of his past experiences in his army time.
I really should give this guy a name. Was thinking of Steve.
