Travelling is wonderful. The challenge of the journey creates a present, mindfulness that sharpens your experience. 

The trick is to keep the same attentiveness in your day to day life that you would if you knew that you only had two weeks left on the vacation clock. Ticking away. 

The truth is… you don’t really know. You don’t know how long your journey to earth will be. There is no guarantee of an old age. 

Rather than freak out or forget this concept – seek the middle road – stay attentive, open, learning, witnessesing, absorbing, savour all of life and truly live.
