Only two weeks until departure to India. I am completely nervous and elated. It's like the butterflies in my stomach have had too much to drink and are running into each other; I feel nauseous. It's all so beautiful, formidable, very unfamiliar, imagining that I am one person, embarking on a voyage across rivers, mountains, and the sea. What I love about airplanes is the birds eye view, but without the wind kissing my face of course. I feel very small in comparison to the world, but not any less important. This is everything that I love about an adventure; there is a little risk involved, but it is not unhealthy--just wildly intriguing. I have my loving companion, my security, my devoted family, and my outstanding friends. It is all of you who I will be writing to in the next six weeks, giving you a small window to peep through in the hopes that you might experience a little of India too. So I go forward into the pungent deep of spices, fresh fruit, religion, dust, hot-sticky-air, and complete bliss that is my fantasy India. We shall see...
