“Not all those who wander are lost.†– J.R.R Tolkien Truer words have never been spoken. Travelling shouldn’t be a chore. It shouldn’t be an escape. It shouldn’t be a rush to a destination. One must travel for travel’s sake. Because travelling changes who we are for the better. In more ways than one.
You don’t get as angry as you used to. You are okay with trying new things. You accept people as they are. And you know that you do all this because with every trip you take, you come back a little wiser and a little calmer.
A hot cup of tea at a road-side on a chilly winter morning gives you as much pleasure as a promotion at work.
