Travels make us more humane

 

Life is a journey of views, perceptions, and people through memory lanes. Travels make our memory lanes alive and make us feel life everywhere. Travels make us alive and feeling life on a vast terrain, beyond nationalities and nations. . Travels help us to outgrow pride and prejudices that we acquired from childhood. Travels make us to discover and rediscover the world within us and beyond us. Travels make us learn and unlearn every day. Travels make us to feel the people and planet everywhere. Travels make us to appreciate diversity and differences and also understand the unity of humanity everywhere. Travels make us to feel the world beyond the countries and confines and cultures. Travels make us to sense, smell, touch and feel the world. Travels make us humble and humane. Travels make us grateful and gracious. I have been a traveler of this world and beyond. Every time I travel even to the same country, I learn something new everywhere. I learned history, people, politics and people through travels. Did my first travel by train to Bombay in 1971 and continuous travels for the last thirty years. Lived in many parts of India and traveled to everywhere corner of India. Traveled in more than 120 countries and still learning to understand the world within and beyond. I am first and foremost a traveler and all other things are incidental.
