The Haji Ali Dargah in Mumbai, seen here when the waters recede. Very soon the sea will be back with its restless waves and clamour while the mosque will remain in resplendent silence and peace.

To be humble in moments of glory. To be calm when the times are tough. To ride the wave when they threaten and to give in when they offer you no choice.

These make us complete.

(at Haji Ali Dargah)

When you leave sight of a shore, new adventures come your away. Yet, the allure of adventure must override fears. Fears of loss and pain. Sometimes unfounded and at other times rather practical.

But it is in the courage to seek new shores that life seeks its renewal from. It is this seeking that we need to keep alive in us. To stay curious and to have the courage to leave shores that have been kind and familiar.

It is in this seeking that new journeys emerge. When the new journeys emerge new insights come by.

Somewhere along the line, new eyes and a new mind appears.

Go travel.
