How often I have wished to be whisked away to lands afar. To be shown that which I have only seen in photos. To have new experiences. To eat new foods. To be somewhere - ANYWHERE new.
Meanwhile, someone far away is wishing to be whisked away to my land. To be shown that which is in my backyard geographically speaking. To have experiences I've had. To eat foods I have eaten. To be where I have been.
If only we could magically trade places without the hassle and expense of travel. To spend time walking in each other's footsteps. For now, I will continue to peruse photos of lands afar and sigh longingly. Perhaps someday, I will make that leap and land somewhere far and away.
