A PHILOSOPHY
Travel can be a relaxing, deep breath,
replenishing our reserves, or it can be an
adrenaline rush, motivating us for our next
challenge. Which do you choose?
Travel helps us rediscover our true selves and
our families. It removes us from our day-to-day
life of demands, chores, and obligations, and
rewards us with time...to be shared in the pursuit
of fun. A vacation is the perfect excuse to be
light-hearted and silly together, or to share
unexpectedly profound moments of love and
togetherness.
Travel helps us understand and appreciate
different cultures and lifestyles. It gives us a
new yardstick on which to measure quality of
life. It helps us appreciate all we have.
Travel helps us to see that different may be
better, or worse, or just that...different.
Travel connects us to the rest of the world. It
puts us in our place, while at the same time
reinforcing the importance of each individual
God created.
Travel educates us--maybe in the most basic of
ways--it opens our eyes and minds to first-time
experiences we could not have known any other
way. By broadening our experiences, we are
better participants in the family, community,
nation, and world in which we live.
