A Literary Journey That Will Change the Reader?s P
Are Travelers in danger of becoming tourists?? Régent Jean Cabana asks this question mid-way through his book ?Travelers: The Meaningful Journey.? It is a question that this reader was already mulling, and when I read it, I nodded my head ? not in agreement or disagreement, but with the realization that I was also asking the same question. When he gives us his answer, it is as if we had known it all along.
Cabana also comments that ??travel is a potent, inexhaustible and elegant metaphor for life?s journey? and his personal experience, introspection and fine writing style engage the reader not only in his philosophical portrayal of a Traveler (the capital T sets this person apart from the ?tourist? or ?traveler? we all have been at one time or another) but sets in motion a process whereby we stop to ponder our own physical travels and, on a more personal level, our own life?s journey. ?The Traveler is curious about the world he visits and he always hopes that the best is yet to come?? but we?re told that often the Traveler hits a wall or rock bottom during his travels, or journey, and must find a way to come to grips with whatever psychology has permitted this reality to take place. Most Travelers, Cabana tells us, work through the hard place and experience their own epiphany of journey which enables them to more clearly see the road ahead. It is the process of the journey that matters to a true Traveler.
Crafted from his personal experience of years of travel, thoughtful research of world Travelers from ancient times and through the ages, and interviews with Travelers from around the world whom he has encountered, Cabana creates a literary journey that will change the reader?s perspective on travel, and very likely effect the transformation of many from tourists and travelers to Travelers.
