Exchanging

Posted in Art, Music, Photography, Social Change, Travels by marieyap on March 25, 2009

So, you travel, you meet people.

It is my favorite part of traveling. It might have been just a little time you crossed path with this person, but I have been able to stay in touch with my travel friends, as I believe if we are willing just giving a little bit of our daily time to others, then a new friendship will be born.

So, we exchanged thoughts ! From the very little daily life’s story to their greatest moments in life ! You open your heart to listen to this new friend, you appreciate the opportunity to meet a complete stranger  whom may never cross path with you at all in your entire life.. Just for this reason, in the particular year, particular month, particular day and hours , minutes, seconds, you were there ! What a beautiful experience! 

Perhaps, you talk about personal experience in life, your views or what can we all do for this beautiful world, your views in the art’s world, ( music, book, film, theatre plays, the food, the drinks…bla bla bla…) 

so, you pick up the good music, book , artist , and expand your own world through the strangers you met. You may go back and start to search what they have brought into your life, the new names of a musician,  the book you ought to read , the artist you ought to know more  or just being happy as you were part of each other TINY little bit of each other life …

Or you may be just start to tell your friend about  these new friends you met ..you introduce their music, their thoughts , their goal in life ..etc and along the way , you may have just have opened another door for them in their life!

I thank you my travel friends
