Learning to Travel Bangkok Thailand Khao San Road Southeast Asia Thursday, November 16, 2006
Learning how to live ones life takes a lifetime to learn, however I do believe at the end of my days, I will know the answers.
There is no perfection and life is a journey, I will be lucky if I convince one person in my life that I love them. Gee, I will be lucky if I convince myself that I like me…
Humility I have been taught it to be teachable.
I learned two things in my room last night, and I have stayed in this hotel in Bangkok and maybe the same room about 20 separate trips. A person would think or could be presumptuous and think, - I know everything about this hotel. -
My room is a concrete box; it is on the lowest floor of an even bigger concrete box. This is good; in a tropical country if the building was big; enough I would become the same a caf? and keep the temperature around 50 some degrees Fahrenheit.
However, there is no breeze in my room and the air does not become rejuvenated or recycled from outside the room.
I have a window, but if I close the curtain, then there is no air, if I open the curtain then anyone can walk by and look in the room.
I want to open the curtain… but I do not want people to see in.
I realized last night, when the lights are off, I can open the curtain and nobody can see in.
What I learned about this room is room specific, it means nothing to anyone but me.
Nevertheless, this is my point to myself about learning to travel, the journey never stops, I continue to learn, and there is never a day when I do not learn a new trick.
I like school, however, I know many people say how they hate school, it would be quite enjoyable for me to go to University for the rest of my life, and it would be a great life.
I am in a University of real life, every day I am learning how to travel, there will be no graduation.
