Reflection.

It's been many months now since I've visited North Africa--Morocco, Egypt--and then moved on into Israel...hitting up some other spots as well.

Those who read my site during my travels probably thought I hated it, at many times. Perhaps.

Entering Israel was a momentously moving--and happy--experience.

But now, I'm nostalgic.

Now I wish I were back there.

Now, in a way, I feel like I'm wasting my time, wasting one of the best educations I could get at a time in life when I am primed to receive it...by NOT being in North Africa or the Middle East.

Now is the time.

Now I can truly reflect without the biases fo the moment.

Now I do wish I were back.

In a year and a half, I think I know where I'll be.

Some things are uncertain, other things are not.

I will make my own certainty. At least on this one point.
