Back to Reality

It's my last night in Miami, the last night of my birthday tour. It's been fabulous for so many reasons. I don't know where to start.

I'm loved and I love on a universal level, from the family who opened their home to me in Singapore, to the decades long friend I met for the first time at her wedding party, too the new magical connection I made that same night with a new friend. (Hoping the latter will extend at least as far into the future.) And that was just Singapore.

In Malaysia, another connection that was made years ago was... manifested... I think of it as closing a circle, with unbelievable and unprecedented generosity.

In Miami, my daughter notwithstanding, I connected with a more recent friendship that began at the university. This meeting was live and it seems we both recognized something in and about the other that will grow and cement our friendship.

Having grown up in Philadelphia, certain feelings were in short supply; trust, for instance. Not only is it difficult to trust people myself, I find it extraordinary that people would trust me, although I consider myself very trustworthy.

Traveling light... GI duffle-bag in effect.

I honestly feel that I've transcended during this trip. My concern is that once I get back to Philly I'll slowly climb into my armor and will bury, or worse, lose any of the love-power I generated in Asia.

It will be a real test. Today is March 15, 2016... last day is December, 16 of this year... nine months and a day. Anything can happen, including the Presidential election. Perhaps my destiny is outside of the US, regardless of the results. It remains to be seen.

And that's today's ramble. I'll look back at this series and... ???
