So whats did we learn from our trip around America .

Well A LOT. But i shall keep it brief and to the point and hope you find the message in it thats for you.

1) It reminded me that every moment we live can be a life change experiment if we want it to be. (you dont have to go roaming the globe)

2) It reminded me the power of a change of scenery to give you new perspective

3) It reminded me that my fears, plans and worries are about as useful as the opinion of an amoeba on a flea on a dog in Africa.

3) It reminded me that sadly most people are still on a hamster wheel, trying to earn their way to happiness. But happily there are also many living to the beat of their own drum. Not caught up in the illusion of ‘more’.

5 It reminded me that,

  • Inner peace is found in effortlessness not struggle
  • That trials are usually gifts not our enemy
  • That happiness is an acceptance not a pursuit
  • That enlightenment is a losing not a gaining
  • That purpose is now not later
  • That our pains are generally caused by underlying pleasures
  • That the feeling of fear is only as real as you say it is
  • That life IS the destination and you cant get it wrong.

We definitely came back with an expanded sense of peace and purpose that we had never experienced before.

So at the moment Bessie and I are watching with curiosity as a new path emerges for us as things we never could have conceived of become possibilities in our life.

Over the next week or so we will fill in the details. But the lifechangeexperiment continues. This time hopefully to give others the chance of a new life we found for ourselves.
