Being open to wonder can be a colourful journey that will change you forever !
Several years ago an opportunity came along to explore....to look at the world in a different way, to observe, to experience.....to remember.
Wandering the streets of Rome, I was lost among the architecture, eyes wide drinking in all that surrounded me....and happily I ambled on.
He knew where we were going, so I followed.
As the streets narrowed and it was becoming all too much, the crush of tourists, the noise, the heat....we turned a corner and my heart stopped.
My breath was snatched from my chest and tears filled my eyes....a blue oasis stood before me and for a brief moment it all fell away.....the tourists...the noise....the heat, I stood alone unable to articulate my emotions, He knew where we were going !
In that second my life changed, a memory formed, never to be lost again.
The emotion of that moment stays with me even today....most people only remember the crowds, the camera flashes and the noise.
From time to time you must let yourself be guided by those that know you best....the rewards are beyond anything you could ever wish for.
I know that was a moment in time, never to be replicated....but it took me on a journey....He took me on a journey !
As a very clever Man once said "stick with me kid and I will show you the world"
