Life we as humans have moments in our life when we want to seek for a memorable love to wanting to find the thing that makes us who we are. whether it’s having a passion for music to having a passion for art but some have a passion for travel. It’s a question why it’s such a big thing that is involve in everyone life but the answer can only be told through your own eyes and your own soul. See my story of finding myself and travelling was when I moved countries from Thailand to Australia both are such a wonderful place yet so different and yet so much a like which is very strange. When I travelled back to Thailand my home I can see the spiritual feeling of it not because I’m a local but because it has a sense of adventure an unknown feeling that is filled with such beauty and positivity. The feeling of the new air in my lungs and the feeling that occurs when things are different is a change that makes you see the bigger picture of life. The beauty of Thailand is amazing the people were so open to anyone saying hi even if you don’t know them. The temple that is filled with so much elements that all connects us together. Monks walks the streets smiling and giving everyone a blessing a chance for forgiveness. The beauty of the blue beach waves around the food a colour of taste. People speaking in different rouges but still tries to communicate which is amazing how a stranger can become a friend. The music played in traditional forms connecting to the history of Thailand. It’s strange how even the people kept the traditional manners it’s like living in a timeline that loops. When I walked the streets of Thailand I felt this warmth this feeling of being connected to everything a feeling I can’t describe but I can understand it. It was this feeling of home that I was meant to belong here which I am but it was happiness that occurs with a snap of a finger. I can still remember it my family and the people that knew when I was just a child . I can still see it, the golden temples to the festivals that happens when I was 6. But most of all what I admire about my home country was the festivals how we Thai people still connect ourselves with what we believe in and use that as a way to celebrate about it. There was a festival called Songkran where no matter who you are if you are a stranger someone who isn’t Thai it doesn’t matter. You can join in the festival. Songkran is basically a water festival where anyone can take a shot at throwing water shooting water from a water gun to hitting people with a ballon filled with well water. It’s just a big party where everyone loves to have fun. It was about being happy and celebrating. It was a memory that will always be in my heart because on that day it was just a connection of love and endless joy . It was just pure happiness from everyone soul. That’s why I wanted to travel I want to see things like that but is different I believe travelling is something that makes us grow as a person it makes our mind healthy and loving. It makes our soul a joy that never stops. It’s a big change to our life that will all will adore. From going to Brazil to having a dinner in a cafe in England even if it’s such a little thing it’s a change and it’s a connection and a euphoric feeling that adventures our soul into the unknown what the world can give us the positives of it . How Mother Nature creates our earth and we as people are given the chance to explore it to love it and to venture out to what we will soon discover our soul our happiness and our communication with others. It was all about finding ourselves and remembering when we grow old we are going to sit down and see a picture ourselves where ever we went and say or think of even just smile about us finding our selves through our own eyes and about how we made it how we did that and how it made our life an adventure our adventure and soon if you take a chance in life it will be yours it will be you who remembers the moments.
