Travel Memoirs


It is ok to climb high even if you could only do it once
Reach the destination... although you are the last one
Observe the world in a way you never did before ...
laugh with people you never spoke with ever ...
Ask for help... accept the pain ... aspire to be better ... dream 
Truth is fierce ... Self reflection scary ...
Our weakness does not define our soul...
Our falls are only momentary ... how we rise ...legendary...
With every travel ... learn so much more..
on the road ...life reloads ...
Priorities are transient ... matter erodes
Passion ... Philosophy ...Misery ...
Companion .... ethereal hope
We are all walking alone ... stars shining.. seemingly close...
Illusion of freedom ... glory of goodness ... reality of cost
such is our world ... beautiful .. brave ...battle lost ...
---- Road Trip Kentucky, Tennessee & North Carolina

 Making new friends ... Losing old ones ... Memories .. Some etched for lifetime ... Some erased for ever .... Traveling is fanciful thing to have in your profile ... It reads well ... Perfect ego escalator ...I am a traveller ... Something that sets you apart from the usual herd of regular people ... If only you knew the ache ... It hurts so much ... It hurts to go back ... It hurts to find it difficult to be regular .. You crave to be happy in your day job & wish to not wish so much to be some where ... It hurts when your most desired of the bucket list is incomplete .. But you smile away .. It hurts to be humiliated & laughed at for being silly .. To always hope strangers will say yes ... And they don't .. It hurts when friends say yes & then say no ... Every travel diary teaches so much more about our own selves .. Wonder if we really want to know so much ...see so much .. The need to see more increases so much more ... It hurts so much ... It's so beautiful ... It feels so real .. To hurt so much .. So much truth .. Such rawness ...so much love .. With just life ... world .... people
