A Good Traveler does not Arrive
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,” – Laozi. This lesson teaches us that all endeavors – great and small – have a beginning. I like to believe it also reminds us to be mindful of our origins. Where we are and everywhere we go can be traced back to an origin. Three decades ago, I took my first solo trip and I have been traveling ever since.
