emails

If you haven't read post #10 on Chisinau yet, you should read that first as for this post won't mean much.

I originally posted something else here but removed and shortened it. The main purpose of this post was to share some of the emails I received and not to clarify my previous post.

Anyhooo, without further ado, I give you the top 2 emails (names have been hidden and identifying comments removed to protect the innocent):


EMAIL # 1:
Subject: Emotional
Body of email:

"I wept openly as you commented on your longing to find self and happiness. It was an extremely emotional moment for me. Did you consume any bad shellfish??"



EMAIL # 2:
Subject: jesus christ
Body of email:

"i come to this blog to live vicariously thru your adventures because i am up to my eyeballs in "shared happiness" and you reward me with this ultra introspective yackity-yack about missing home and feeling incomplete?? FYI - i thought you just missed cigarettes...

I must say that the intro to the new section was quite nice and the tongue ring well-placed for maximum pleasure only to have it all quickly fall apart into complete chaos.

However, i must admit to sharing some of the same feelings when i left the USA to live in XXXXXXXX at age XX.

these questions are bound to happen to the lone traveller, but don't sacrifice the tremendous journey you are undergoing now to try to answer these life questions now...enjoy the moment...then come back and figure it out = just my 2 cents....
"

So, there you have it...great stuff.

Also, thank those of you that have emailed me as well as posted comments (Marnie, Leslie, and the fellas at AD). I appreciate all of it...even the Wah burger with a side of cries. You forgot the extra heaping of humble pie.

I am in Bucharest now, let the journey continue...
