Childhood Wish

 

Children’s wishes are filled with many wants, things they live without. The newest toy or a loving puppy are at the top of the list of most children. But, when you grow up poor, you learn to accept it and make the best of what you have. I just wished to, someday, see the world beyond my neighborhood.

Through hard work and focus, that day has come… and come again. I’ve been able to make the wish of travel come true. And, with every journey and expedition, I still see the world through the eyes of that same child who made that wish. I’m in awe of every thrilling moment and experience. I’m no longer that child but I still burn with the same desire. My goal isn’t to visit every country but to have as many meaningful experience as possible.

I don’t know where the next trip will take me but I’m sure it will bring about that same childhood excitement.
