What you truly own...another beautiful quote

"I was watching everything in silence...because I was regretting to leave what was so deeply mine, so intimately mine; and it was so because nobody else but I could know that on every rock, on every piece of ice, on the glaciers and eternal snow drifts, throughout the whole place, my footprints emerged."

Jose Manual, 1939
Exploration of the Antarctic

You can have all the comparative conversations with people on where you have been and all you have seen. But in the end, you have the opportunity to be in each of those places in your own solitude. Your footprints are what you truly own and it is in those which lie your experiences - your energy, your path, your feelings and your memories. All the borders you have crossed, canoe trips you have been on, silly nights you have memories of, thoughts you have tripped on...your soles have made their lastly marks and have walked your path.
