I believe that each of us has an amazing inner light that is sometimes hidden but never extinguished, and I write poetry about my time abroad to spread that light. Getting your thoughts and feelings out of your head and into a medium that you can re-read, look at, or listen to can help you see what an experience has to teach you. Often your awareness of yourself and others changes over time, so having something physical that you can explore is a useful tool. Your ability to appreciate an experience can be obscured by so many things.
Having a physical reminder you can turn to during and after a journey can help you remember what makes you laugh, who helps you along the way, and how lucky you are to be having experiences that move you beyond your life before your travels. On every journey, you are bound to encounter people who shape your life, in small and large ways. Particularly if you are volunteering, working with communities in need, or passing through a volatile region, making some of your impressions easily accessible could inspire others to travel to that region or to support the work that is being done there.
