Travelers

As moths are attracted to the light

so are travelers in strange lands.

We meet to share ideas and experiences

and to learn what we can one from the other.

These relationships are not forever

but serve a special purpose for the time and place.

Perhaps our paths will cross again but we can never

recapture the same feelings as now.

And as we go our separate ways

we will occasionally think of the other.

And as these thoughts travel

the vast distances and touch the other,

a warm feeling will occur,

because each thought continues

until it reaches its very special destination.

Travel well my friend,

and always look upon life with the mind of a child,

seeing things fresh and new

and with the awe they deserve.
