Travel for vacation, travel for business, travel for escape. Traveling can be seen as going to a new place in hopes of success, relief or rest. But the idea of travel does not have to be physical. A monk may sit without moving, yet travel farther than any plane can take you. A reader may open a book, turn to a page and enter a world they can only imagine. An author may write their life work from a dream.
Travel is relative, travel is in the eye of the traveler.Going back to The think thought trot (7/27), what you think influences your reality.Traveling through your thoughts can change what you see and how you feel. You can stand in front of a pyramid in Giza and see no purpose in their design and feel no inspiration. But you can also imagine you are in Giza and see a problem in your life as a simple brick in the thousands that make your great pyramid; nothing that could make you crumble. We have the passport to our own world, we use it everyday to shape how we see everything around us, from our daydreams to our reality.
Travel is free, travel is far, travel is near. Instead of searching the globe for happiness, first look at yourself, discover the traveler so then you can understand where you want to go. Traveling can be one of humans greatest gifts. Birds can soar above us, engines may drive propellors, but nothing can take us to the places our minds can.
