A couple of Words of Wisdom from this trip


Imi writes...

Much was invested in making this trip possible. I now realise investing in experiences is worth far more than investing in material goods. The core of human life is the underground journey. Human beings are a vast and intricate web of connections, ideas, of memories, of expectations, and so on... Rich experiences thicken and deepen this web of connections that constitute our psyche.

My first words of wisdom: Invest in experiences rather than in things.

Unless you expect the unexpected, nothing unexpected will happen. Seek and thou shalt find. Ask and thou shalt get. We went on a canoe expedition where mosquitoes, constant rain, trudging in knee high mud marsh and other challenges were a constant occurrence, but we expected that somehow we would be inspired and it turned out to be a glorious trip.

Second words of wisdom: Expect the unexpected and don’t close off your horizons.
