Today I experienced a colorful world of everything from art and spirituality to food and friends. Doors in my mind have been opened as I am in a constant state of learning. All this is doing is setting me up to keep taking steps forward and keep growing to higher internal heights. Connecting the natural world to the spiritual world to the social world was an amazing experience and more beautiful that words can describe. Pictures do no justice. I hold all of the beauty in my mind and will someday give all of these secrets away. Something beautiful, someday...
Dz, AGW, CC: Remember Bourbon Street? Ok it is a little blurry in my mind and maybe yours too, but a great time. Being in Thamel last night, during a holiday and the weekend, reminded me of Bourbon Street. It was just one half the width, plus taxis and rickshaws and dogs and asian techno music. Good times. All of that after an amazing Christmas Eve dinner with my roommates. It is great to talk with a group of very cool girls and hear their response to my past recent experiences. They have helped to clear my mind and reiterate the fact that I have grown leaps and bounds in the past few months. Beautiful.
I hope your holiday was the best. May God bless all and to all a good night.
You read my mind, Trevor. Life is beautiful, but the key is that you have to *live* it. Here in Africa, I frequently find myself inspired, excited, and in awe. Sure, there are frustrations and challenges on a daily basis, but somehow you deal with them. Recently, I was climbing the 'mini-mountain' to my house and thought "I'm happy here. This is *exactly* where I'm supposed to be at this moment." I know that's probably hard to believe for anyone who has ever met cynical me. I'll admit, this feeling of - dare I say - contentment was a scary realization for me. An epiphany? Perhaps...but worrying about semantics only impedes the process of gaining that insight. I'm glad you're finding out about the world and yourself...
ReplyDeletejourneys like this (and yours) push you to a new level...I just have to remain mentally open to taking steps forward
ReplyDeleteHey just wanted to say thanks for the Goat,, you guys made me so happy, I was moved to tears to think that my children are so thoughtful. I am so blessed, to know that Douglas (that is what I named him) will help improve a family's life. Words cannot express the joy in my heart.... Maintain Internal Heights, peace to your soul...
