To walk across the nations, to enter long forgotten paths. To stop life and just go  for a while. Taking in new experiences from one coast to next, finding out what America is all about. From a settled life of comfort and security, to take to wanderlust and walk unafraid. Into the highest mountains and across lonely plains, what an adventure that would be. Though you might not know any soul as you enter the great unknown, to be a sojourner is to come to know yourself. For you must leave your own comfort zone and open up to others. Giving the American experience a chance. When you have embraced new ideas, and grown a bit inside. Then a sojourner you will no longer be. For you will have new friends and experiences upon which to call. To become a more complete person and to discover what truly lives inside of yourself.
