I just got back from tracking gorillas in Rwanda – a country I never thought I’d visit and an experience I never thought I’d have. My twin brother, Vince jokes that he loves animals more than he loves people. After experiencing gorillas in the wild, I know why. LOL! When a gorilla looks at you the experience is spiritual. It’s like they are looking into your soul and affirming all the mysteries of life.
When traveling we discover ourselves (and our potential) as much as we discover others. What country would you like to travel to next?
I’m Just Sayin’
P.S. Comment and share what excites your sense of childlike wonder.
I love Chinese food so I think I would like to explore China. I love being in the outdoors and would like to see the wildlife and the silk worms.
I had that feeling in Israel about 7 years ago when I volunteered for the first time to work as part of the IDF (Isreali Defense Forces) for a month. There I was in the Holy Land where Jesus actually had walked and preached. There where the bible was coming alive for me… and so humbling as the young male and female soldiers, who were now my comrades, were themselves humbled at the thought that we were there to help them! It was literally awesome!
My dream is to be able to have the resources to be able to go to more countries, as my life choices permit, to bring help and hope from the blessings I have been fortunate to have… Tibet is in the picture!
