I still am an avid follower of your blog and soul journey and, even though I sometimes have missed a few posts, I always come back and enjoy them fully at a later date when I am at peace to let myself be embraced by the magic of your prose and not beset by the turmoil of life.<br /><br />What a narrow minded politician! First and foremost we are all members of the human race no matter what part of the world we happen to live in. To me, rabid nationalism is the most terrifying infectious disease known to mankind. A year without diplomatic backup in Siberia, Somalia, or New Guinea should certainly augment his lacking education.<br /><br />Thank you for your birthday wishes, I'll be back to enjoy more of your posts.<br /><br />PS I am impressed with the new look of your blog and the side-bar facility of clicking on interesting older posts.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-91837461265091069152010-09-14T04:00:28.345-04:002010-09-14T04:00:28.345-04:00oh I just stumbled in and feel memories .. tksoh I just stumbled in and feel memories .. tksSH -ichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03682202730223613014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-19856561792304232772010-09-10T21:30:30.751-04:002010-09-10T21:30:30.751-04:00Just stumbled in here and love it.

It provides us with beautiful memories, new tastes and sounds and just a wonderful sense of well-being and contentment. <br />Apparantly, the majority of Americans never leave the States and here in the UK we usually see more of the world than our own beautiful country. Very strange !!<br />I will seek out Cairo Time. My dad was in Cairo during the war and my sister and I used to pour over his tiny little black and white photographs and gaze at all of the wonderful sights. It's one of the places that I haven't been to yet but is on our list.

Egypt and Cairo have wonderful things to offer, even if some of them may take a little getting used to.

I love Patricia Clarkson.. there is a certain calmness about her... and the subject matter and locations of both movies are right up my alley.. I've had people emailing me telling me these movies will be my thing!! hahaha<br /><br />That image you have chosen is wonderful.. so dreamy...

I am not in anyway compensated by Amazon, but its the only way I can keep track of books that are well recommended, that aren't floating around my house as little scraps of paper, along with other scary pieces of paper, like property tax bills, or Insurance premiums. I will let you know. You make a good point on travel. We should not regard it as a luxury, but a necessity. <br />Best, <br />LizDovecote Decorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11957497471267805395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-71719732773392688712010-09-08T18:49:16.617-04:002010-09-08T18:49:16.617-04:00I’ve finally decided to read Eat Pray Love but ski...I’ve finally decided to read Eat Pray Love but skipped the movie.

Travel is one of the most wonderful and inspiring things to do provided that you look and listen and learn about the countries and people that you visit. I count myself very fortunate to have had the chance to travel as much as I have.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-78283384628878609872010-09-08T14:15:32.315-04:002010-09-08T14:15:32.315-04:00“The world is a book and those who do not travel r...“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” St. Augustine <br /><br />Perfectly sums it up, wonderful post.TSL https://www.blogger.com/profile/07497254205408895928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-58434000930356016782010-09-08T09:20:05.869-04:002010-09-08T09:20:05.869-04:00Thanks Pamela, wonderful post.

From studying art in Florence to hiking sandy hills in the Valley of the Kings in Luxor in sandals. These things for sure give face to the world out there... The Gingrich thing is disturbing - there seems a huge chasm between camps these days. The news today about how some people want to commemorate 9/11 is over the top....<br /><br />On a lighter note, I look forward to traveling to Cairo again in this film, thanks for the recommendation!Valeriannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02621130622153365184noreply@blogger.com
