"The world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles, no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey, a journey of one inch, very arduous and humbling and joyful, by which we arrive at the ground at our feet, and learn to be home."

Jen,

This is the first time I've checked your blog. My apologies! I don't check one of my e-mail accounts very often, so I didn't realize you've been posting here since May.

I resonate with the quote. Funny how that journey of miles over a wide world creates that spiritual journey of one inch.

I'm itching to be off overseas again. I will relish the reports of your great adventure!
