One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Reached a state of trance at a Buddhist temple in Taiwan, drank pure "mineral water" from a spring high up on the mountains in Afghanistan, experienced bliss with acupressure, had a very close tryst with death while trying to not fall off a speeding, crowded train, experienced the pain of war through stories of people who have suffered it- which gave me a fresh perspective towards life and the world we live in.
