#355 / Travel And Talk




I keep coming back to the "Stockdale Questions." Who am I, and what am I doing here? Maybe it is particularly pertinent to address those questions on a day that some believe is the day that the world will end.  That's today, folks, for those who have not been following the Mayan Calendar long count! 

If the world doesn't end today, then the "Stockdale Questions" do become relevant, moving forward. On the other hand, if the world does end .... Well, I guess we won't have to worry too much about those questions then.
Travel and talk are not an exhaustive answer to the "Stockdale Questions," but they do go on my list. Seeing and appreciating the wonders of the natural world (and what we have created ourselves) is definitely both a goal and an accomplishment, as far as I am concerned. 

But "talking?"

I think so.

We build our world with words.
