I've been traveling. It was oxygen to meander cities again. To imbibe art. Savor the familiar. Discover the new. Travel is an old and neglected friend. The reunion was sweet and delicious.
I'd forgotten how much I need to explore the world. I need it to fuel my brain. I need it to fill my heart. It used to be easy. Jumping on a plane was effortless. It was almost a reflex.
It shouldn't be a reflex. We have a clear obligation to travel responsibly. We also have a responsibility to travel. To broaden our horizons. To meet new people who might not be the same as us. To see old friends who feel exactly the same as us.
Time goes by slowly and then quickly. In the blink of an eye so much life has changed. Mostly accidentally. Regaining what was lost is hard when we didn't notice we lost it. It's even harder when we don't know where we lost it.
