Journey Class Closing Commentary - E So.....................? Now that our work is done…  ...The reading -- our journey with Santiago from home to Africa and across the desert in search of his Personal Legend in Coelho’s The Alchemist, our struggle with “Georgie” Crane and Tsung Tsai to make their way across China and Mongolia to honor his learning in Bones of the Master; our riding shotgun with William Least Heat Moon on his circle dream ride in Blue Highways, our out of breath rides with Barbara and Larry Savage around the world in Miles from Nowhere; and our occasional small visits with travelers in A Woman’s Passion for Travel… Now that our work is done… ...Our own meandering -- in Philadelphia, in your own Blue Highway encounter, and in your inventive imagination – Now that our work is done this spring, what have you learned? Take a while and reflect on our journey in this course and your own larger journey, and then write. I’d like you to touch on the course, of course, on what we should do again and what we should let slide, but I’d like you too to go past that and touch on issues larger than the course, questions our work together has raised, not answered. Be full of good thought and honest truth, about everything.    (e)   -- PJClements 8:24:04 AM    comment []
