A call from the wilderness draws me in.
The itch to explore new terrains spread over my skin.
It's been too long since I hit the roads.
Watch the milage rise with every border I cross.
Every journey has a new lesson to be learned.
I search out these teachings from nature around me.
What new discovery awaits me?
I want to visit different areas,
walk on new paths, and experience a spiritual journey.
What passages must I traverse to reach these goals?
The physical and spiritual are not separate,
the crossing from one realm into the other is effortless.
Yet both voyages are essential.
You can not truly enjoy the experience of one without the other.
Just as you travel in a vessel of some kind,
be it a car, a ship, or plane...
your body becomes a vessel for your mind a soul during the travel.
It doesn't always have to be a long trip,
even just a jaunt will give your insides a boost.
You can only stay indoors for so long,
eventually, you will crave the sun,
the breeze on your face,
the sounds of birds chirping all around.
There is always time,
time will pass one way or another,
you just have to step out and take it.
