Try gliding...and in three years? Stay with gliding! It'll offer far more challenges than power flying (which is fine if you're into following needles, procedures and constantly talking to ATC). In gliding you'll learn lots more about judgement skills, spatial awareness, meterology, personal decision making, managing complex workloads, handling unusual attitudes, team working and sensing the air around you. Still, if your end goal is to go from (A) to (B) in a predictable way, stay with power flying :-)
Just a brief note to support the above statement. A Silver C will give you some of the best stick and rudder and judgement skills at a relatively low cost. Invaluable experience.
