Why Don’t We Travel More Often?
A Few Words On Traveling From A Traveler
We don’t know what’s there after this life. Most of us are blessed without any disability. But how many of us have seen the world or made an effort to visit the wonders that this world has to offer.
Be it the Great Walls of China, the Taj Mahal in India, or the breathtaking beaches in the Maldives, there is an infinite number of places to see. You and I are probably struggling to get one vacation a year and that too most of the time is spent in a resort.
Now, before you jump on me, I know it’s a matter of personal choice, but still with a free mind and soul, just think. Why don’t we make a choice to see our only home before we get old and die?
Imagine it this way. You have a 20-room-house. But you have set up everything you need on a day to day basis in one single room. That makes the rest of the 19 rooms useless to you. It becomes a matter of choice whether you want to see them or not. A choice!
The 4 walls of our room can be compared with the borders of our nations.
Most of us see one or two rooms whenever we decide to take a vacation (if any). My parents had spent their entire lives in that single room just to give a good life I have today. I understand finances can be a reason. But again it isn’t a problem for most of us.
I can understand it’s your choice, but I have decided to see as many rooms as I can that I possess with my own eyes before I am too old and tired. I need to have stories to tell my kids and grandkids about the wonderful world we live in.
“Only when we are busy discovering, we will have less war and more peace.”
Imagine standing on a beautiful hill covered with green trees and a waterfall beside. Would you think of destroying them? No right?
The first thing that will come to your mind is: It’s peaceful.
“Peace.”
