I still hope that the best days are ahead for you me, not because of being able to buy things or go places, but because of what I can bring into the life of another.
There’s never any closure in an awe-inspired life. We’re never allowed to know when this fantastic voyage might end … but that’s part of the life-disorientating chaos that makes this choice so thrillingly difficult.*
Paul Pearsall
The traveller does not fixate on arriving,
Everything and everyone
between where we begin
and where we end, holds
the possibility of discovery.
How difficult could it be
not to focus on “getting there”
or completing the task,
But remaining open to wonder
all around us?
