Day 10

"I used to be afraid of the journey," she said. "I used to think arriving was the whole point. Used to think I’d only be somebody when I got there.”

“Yes,” he said. “What changed?”

“I can’t get there without the journey. I wouldn’t know it if I could. The value of the destination is what we share along the way, what we leave behind, what we find to take along. He’s not trying to just get us there; He wants to teach us to love it so we'll recognize it when we’re there.”

He took her hand and smiled.
