departing words

I say goodbye to India

Today I travel south to Dheli

watching this crazy, colorful, dynamic world pass by

almost as quickly as these past two months

a teary eye

a heavy bag

a full heart

an inspired mind

although I depart with empty pockets

I leave rich with lifes adventures

and so I go to yet another beautiful place

Pire Melenge (until next time)

abby

"Of the gladest moments in human life, methinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands. Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of habit, the leaden weight of routine, the cloak of many cares and the slavery of civilization, man feels once more happy."

(Sir Richard Burton)
