Life is a journey, not a destination

Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things – air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.

If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home.

A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” – Lao Tzu

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore. Dream. Discover.”

(Mark Twain)
