Perspective

After living overseas for a few months I feel it may be time to pontificate on the wonder of the travel in Europe. But I think that what I have actually learned is best expressed through two pictures I took at an Irish Musuem.

This is the way I see the world. We live small lives. Day to day we work and we eat and we read and we live. And upon those occasions when the thoughts turn to the world in our narcastic way we think that we see the world as it really is. I thought I knew what I would like and dislike. How the Europeans would act and be. Who I would be, but the truth is. I really lacked perspective.

But the truth is that the world is bigger then we really understand, and we in turn are not smaller, not less important or less meaningful. But we are smaller.
