I am discovering many kinds of new relationships as I travel.
These include relationships to time, to space, to people, to food, to living situations.
I am also discovering what is stable in my life.
This includes my attitudes toward everything that is changing.
I always meet interesting people; and so many people are generous and helpful.
I always have a comfortable place to stay with everything that I need.
I am learning how to keep my balance as I discover new things in the time that I have in new places.
Food is always an enjoyable experience, even when I am not sure what I am ordering in a new language.
It is easy to meet people and to exchange stories.
I am discovering a lot of joy in all of us.
I move more slowly in a new place.
I have time to look around me and take in a different feeling.
I love being immersed in the sounds of another language, its rhythm, its sound shapes.
Gradually, I am able to extract words and a few phrases.
My own vocabulary increases word by word.
I see things from an outsider’s perspective and compare it to my own experiences.
It is so enriching as I discover what we all have in common.
I am so privileged to have this opportunity for observation and experience.
