Every journey, whether we travel it on foot or by some other mode of transportation, whether it be a literal journey that takes us from this place to another or a figurative one that moves us by means of the imagination, has the power to introduce us to adventures well beyond our own boundaries.
Journeys help us to grow as we realize our own potential, but they also test us as they force us to move beyond our own limitations and to dream about a future that is yet to be. The process of discovery that leads us step by step along the journeys of life is an integral part of the travel that we all must undertake.
It helps now and then to know that we don't often have to make this journey on our own. If we're truly lucky or blessed, we discover the companions who walk beside us. These are the people who help us to put things in perspective. These are the people who laugh and cry with us. These are the people who listen when we must talk, and talk when we must listen. If we're wise enough, we'll know the difference.
