Hoy, es la víspera de mi retorno a casa. Me espera un viaje de más de 24 horas. Pero bien ha valido la pena.
A lo largo de los próximos posts iré contando algunas de mis experiencias e impresiones. Cosas que he aprendido, cosas que deseo, cosas en las que creo y cosas por las que lucharé.
Este post es sobre la cosa más importante que aprendí: que la vida es un viaje; y que hay que disfrutar cada etapa del mismo sin preocuparse demasiado por la meta. No debemos perderla de vista, pero ampoco debemos estar tan concentrados en ella, que no disfrutemos del camino. Y sobretodo, debemos estar dispuestos a cambiar de meta, si es que en el camino nos encontramos con algo mejor, y que tal vez hata entonces, ni sabíamos que existía.
Les dejo esta canción de Phil Collins, que ilustra perfectamente el sentimiento:
On My Way
Tell everybody I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
With blue skies ahead yesI'm on my way
And there's nowhere elsethat I'd rather be
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I'm loving every step I take
With the sun beating down yesI'm on my way
And I can't keep this smile off my face
'Cause there's nothing like seeing each other again
No matter what the distance between
And the stories that we tellwill make you smile
Oh it really lifts my heart
So tell 'em all I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
And to sleep under the stars
Who could ask for more?
With the moon keeping watch over me
Not the snow and not the rain
can change my mind
The sun will come out, wait and see
And the feeling of the wind in your face
can lift your heart
Oh there's nowhere I would rather be
'Cause I'm on my way now
-well and truly
I'm on my way now
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be there
With blue skies ahead yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to share
So tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be home
With the sun beating down yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to show
I'm on my way
Yes, I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
With blue skies ahead yesI'm on my way
And there's nowhere elsethat I'd rather be
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I'm loving every step I take
With the sun beating down yesI'm on my way
And I can't keep this smile off my face
'Cause there's nothing like seeing each other again
No matter what the distance between
And the stories that we tellwill make you smile
Oh it really lifts my heart
So tell 'em all I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
And to sleep under the stars
Who could ask for more?
With the moon keeping watch over me
Not the snow and not the rain
can change my mind
The sun will come out, wait and see
And the feeling of the wind in your face
can lift your heart
Oh there's nowhere I would rather be
'Cause I'm on my way now
-well and truly
I'm on my way now
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be there
With blue skies ahead yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to share
So tell everybody I'm on my way
And I just can't wait to be home
With the sun beating down yes I'm on my way
And nothing but good times to show
I'm on my way
Yes, I'm on my way
