And the Gratitude keeps on coming

Its evident that traveling changes and humbles your perspective. It's been three days, but I've seen an immediate shift in my dealings with others. I have had an increase to talk with those around me and learn of their lives, who they are, and what their challenges and aspirations are. There is a lack of fear and in its place solidarity and confidence have arisen with respect to engaging in my community. I don't know what particular event propelled me to feel this way, but it happened under the experience of travel, that is for sure. There is something enigmatic that occurs after one comes back form travel- for me, its the explication of humility and solidarity. I hold group travel with the utmost of respect!
Museum at the Cradle of Civilization, where  a 2.5 million year old skull of a predecessor of homo sapiens was found. Also the site of the first recorded use of fire.
