So many people are looking
for a new beginning...
so many people are in need
of a direction...
so many people wish that they
had something in their lives
that would give them a feeling of belonging...
so many people have friends
and family members who they love -
but they know that what they want
lies beyond what and where they have always known...
so many people have felt this insatiable
draw to get on a plane and jet off
to somewhere over the horizon...
so many people have this instinct
that compels them to go somewhere
they have never been before,
because the place they are going to
may feel so much like paradise
it could easily be a place within a dream...
so many people are just waiting
for something or someone
to give them the push they need
to take a life-changing leap...
so many people look around at their lives
and they feel that they need more...
so many people do not know
that they have been imprisoned by something,
someone, somewhere, for some time,
until they are looking up
at an unbroken blue sky
and they know what it feels like
to be truly free...
so many people have chosen
to do something profoundly special
and adventurous in the pursuit
of finding their life's purpose,
and so many people have found themselves
choosing to start a new life
thousands of miles away
from the country of their birth
in places that lie far away
on the other side of the world.
