To some people, the fear of traveling has burdened them with the inability to truly expand their knowledge, and to experience what life has to offer them. Life is like a pathway, that leads to just about anything you allow it to lead to. For some, it leads right back to their front door of their house. To others, it leads to a world of the unknown. In my life, I have had many opportunites to experience, or at least, get a tast of what life has outside of my home. Fortunately, with that experience, I am able to have a slight understanding of what my goals are and where I want my path to lead to as I grow older. This is not the best picture of pictures, but it is a picture that has some meaning to me. It symbolizes a time in my life that I had the opportunity to travel. During my senior year, I was only able to get a glimpse of Europe, for a week. Anyone that knows anything about Europe, knows that Europe cannot be seen in one week, not even two weeks. Sad to say, I do not remember which garden this was, but it reminded me of such a happy place. It was so colorful and had such a fairytale-like structure, who would want to leave?
Not only were there beautiful gardens, but beautiful open country fields. This picture was taken from the Salt Mines. The beauty and simplicity of the picture truly capture the country in Europe.
Travel broadens the eyes to see much more than what is in front of them. It allows people to learn of other cultures and lifestyles. There is no truer way than the first-hand experience from another away from home.
