Traveling

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Travel brings wisdom only to the wise. 
It renders the ignorant more ignorant than ever.
Why do you go away? So that you can come back.
So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. 
We travel, initially, 
to lose ourselves and we travel,
Next, to find ourselves.
We wanderers, ever seeking the lonelier way, 
begin no day where we have ended another day,
and no sunrise finds us where sunset left us.
The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. 
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, 
and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon,
For each day to have a new and different sun.
There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
Once you have traveled, 
The voyage never ends, 
but is played out over and over again 
In the quietest chambers. 
The mind can never break off from the journey.
There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign.
Travel to search and you come back home to find yourself there.
One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
Not all those who wander are lost,
