A New Adventure

Greece and Spain seem to be on the menu for this summer. I have to be in Santorini on July 1 for a friends wedding and Spain is the place I love. I was hoping to throw in Egypt; however the political climate in Arab countries is temperamental at the moment and I don't want to get caught in any sort of scuffle...

Finally

Today I made a promise to myself to begin to put together all my notes and journal entries from my and Mika's trip last summer and FINALLY blog it out... The entries are going to be separated by city and provide highlights from each stop....  otherwise there'd be about 100 posts..... Here goes nothing!

Unique

“Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again. And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.”
