The Inner Journey

    'You are certain you are ready to undertake such a great expedition?' he now dared to ask."--Voss, pg 20.
     In this quote, Edmund Bonner is wondering if Voss can truly set out to do the grand expedition Voss plans to do. It is something I sometimes have had to ask myself on this trip. While traveling is fun and exciting, it can sometimes be quite daunting. Once you get to a place, everything is fine, but when you think about the process to get there, that's when complication begin.
    Going on a 15-hour train ride to get someplace can be a frightening prospect. However, when one think about it, you can't let a terrible train or plane ride stop you from having an amazing experience. So when I ask myself if I can do something, I have to answer exactly how Voss answers him, "naturally."
