A View of the Mountain Pass Called the Notch of the White Mountains by Thomas Cole (from wikipaintings.org)
In the mood for some poetry?
Recently, I was introduced to C.P. Cavafy's poem, "Ithaca." The poem is a good reminder to me to savour my life journey for it's through my attitude and my experiences that I gain the true wealth of my life.
And by keeping this perspective, I can limit my disappointment if I find that my final destination is not everything I envisioned it to be.
As the real reason for the existence of the final destination is not about capturing a peak experience, but inspiration to keep moving forward on a path of learning and of growth.
Thank you, Mr. Cavafy, for this beautifully-written reminder!
