If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light.
Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness
selfishness and fears.
~Cesare Pavese
Not sure I can add much to this one for Quotography’s theme of Travel this week. I’ve found (the hard way) that envy, jealousy, unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, fear of the unknown, resentment and bitterness are heavy baggage.
Have you ever noticed that it takes twice or three times as long to make it to your destination when hauling all this around? And when I get there, I’m exhausted.
I really need to learn how to pack lighter.

Maybe that is why I am all sweaty on our recent trips?
Your post and fear of the unknown has me thinking about a comment a neighbor made about death that resonated with me. I’ll have to put some time into developing that idea.
Always a worthwhile stop when I am here Lisa–thanks.

You are spot on about that, Lisa!
As you shared, it’s like carrying around heavy baggage. And I think we ALL have to learn how to pack lighter. Great reminder.
The photo you used goes perfect with the quote!
Hope you had a super Monday, my friend!

I love this combination you have put together today. The balloon is so light in the brilliantly blue sky, reflecting the meaning of the words so artistically. Well done! kelley—the road goes ever ever on
