We had all kinds of plans for this, our fifth year of full time/home free travel. We were going to visit India, Sri Lanka and travel through Thailand.
Welp! The universe had other plans. We came to Da Nang, Vietnam, planning on a 1 month stay. We’ve now been here for almost 10 months!
We are very grateful to have sheltered in such a safe, affordable and beautiful country. We’ve undergone two very strict lockdowns but have also had the opportunity to explore this beautiful city.
Most of all I think this has been a time of reflection and focus on what’s really important.
I’ve learned to take nothing for granted and that plans, expectations and situations can change in a moment.
I’ve learned to let small stuff go. I’ve gotten much better at accepting people as they are.
I’ve really come to appreciate the value of a spiritual routine, of grounding myself with morning quiet time and practicing regular meditation and prayer. I’ve also learned how important regular exercise is to my spirit.
I’ve recommitted myself to finding beauty every day and sharing it with the world.
How about you? What lessons have you learned in 2020? We’d love to hear from you. Please feel free to share in the comments section.
