Love Letters to Kristin

Once Upon A Time, in my immediate future I got the News...the Really big news that I have a destiny to fulfill in Nepal.

Funny story on how I am being beckoned to go to Nepal.  The eldest sister Neo (she's like a humble version of the superhero from The Matrix) ran into a psychic she knows while she was out and about in a market place.  The psychic (they always correct me by saying that it's their spiritual adviser) told her that she needs to get to Nepal ASAP.
Now, here is a little backstory on my lady friend and her entire family....they are a bunch of germaphobe hypochondriacs who have sworn off ever going to India or any immediate neighboring countries.
Neo's immediate response was,
"But I had wanted to go to germany?"
Her psychic told her "No, you're going to Nepal....first...and then at some later time you can visit Germany."
So, it's been told therefore she will adhere to the Devine voice of her conduit...Nepal it is!

Here is where I come in (and don't you worry I will be going....and I am the only person who is looking forward to whatever chaos....god I love that word...comes our way).  I had a sit down with the sisters this past weekend and I quickly came to the realization that they have no clue where they are going nor do they have any idea of what to do once when they get there.  I don't even think that lady Mei Lay could point to Nepal on a Map...or a globe...maybe with a little GPS with a tad bit of sass.

I take a deep breathe and I start walking them through from their first step here in the New York up to the initial destination of Lumbini, Nepal. (There looks to be a strong potential for subsequent destinations that hold religious significance.
I should mention that they are devout Buddhists and they are doing this on the premise that it will be a pilgrimage...in hopes of spiritually elevating their samsara.
Personally, I am not religious....but I do have a strong sense of curiosity to fabrics of all religious observations (you can throw in Myths, superstitions and folklores).  I have always considered myself spiritually connected to the ways of humanity and the dimension it exists in.

I am leaning towards endorsing they consider some sort of small tour group that focuses on retracing Buddha's steps.  It would be a bit more adventurous if I plan out some kind of personalized  set of destinations...but having to travel with them under time constraints, there is no room for error.  Getting lost or ill is not on the to do list...as fun as that may be on the other side of the world.
Don't forget, I do root for chaos!
After Thinking this through, they are going to need a solid sense of direction and purpose....otherwise, they just might get lost in a maniac mesh of mayhem.

Ce Domage as the French tend to say.

Au Revoir and Viva Nepal

Yours Truly,
