I remember a trip home some years ago from a visit with my husband’s aunt who lived in Indiana. A short time after we crossed the Canadian border, we encountered one of the last fierce winter storms of that year. When we finally reached a visitor centre, we turned off the highway and waited it out inside a warm building.  We were tired from a day on the road. We had enjoyed our US visit and appreciated our stay with our gracious hostess, and now we just wanted to go home. To our home city, to our own house with a comfortable bed, familiar people around us.

As the weather warms up, people plan for camping and vacations,amd so there are more people on the road or waiting in airports to get places. Think not only of vacations as travelling opportunities, but what we do each day of our lives. That’s a journey too. A journey that sometimes is easy and other times more difficult. Who travels with you on that journey?
