Seed tomorrow with wise travel today!
We left for France with 6 inches of cut and pasted information about villages that were calling us, a map dotted with sticky notes, identifying our “must experience” explorations, and a pretty good notion of a route. Well, kind of a route. However, with less plans and more anticipation of experiences awaiting us, we got on the plane, open to that which said “stay a while.”
Intrigued at those who criticized us and stated they could never travel with us (yes, I understand, they couldn’t!), I savor Lao Tzu’s words from centuries ago:
A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.
To me, the notion of “arriving” is less exciting than the idea of “being.” I’m always mesmerized at the awe-inspiring experiences we “bump into” as our travels unfold.
It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.
~ Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness
And, what a journey France has been! I’ll be exhilarated, yet sad, as we relax in Paris as our last stop. Yes, we have an end point. It’s what comes before that that excites me!
Life is calling . . . Today’s the day!
