A week from today I will be on a plane to Africa. I still can't believe it. I'm not sure that I am able to describe how I feel yet. It's more than excitement, anxiety or fear. I feel like I'm standing at the floodgates to something that was once out of my reach and now I'm finally close enough to pass through the gates. Like life is finally opening up in a way that makes sense.
I had cocktails with a good friend this evening and he asked me if I was running away from something here in NY and what was I hoping to find in Africa? I'm not sure that I have a simple answer for either question, but I think it could be found in Africa. At least that is my hope.
