My Best Friends Suffer World-Weariness

by Chris Abraham on 05/12/2005 · 0 comments

Two of my best friends on the planet communicated with me today their respective feelings of world-weariness.


I officially became world-weary back in 1997 after almost ten-years of ambitious travel as a photographer.

Funny thing, I am not life-weary at all. Apparently I am more amused by my every day as a salary man in Washington, DC, than my chums are in their respective Tanzanian and Madrid lives.

I think what I realized is that instead of travelling to find myself, which is what I was telling myself, I was travelling to escape myself.

That said, I plant to visit both buddies this Spring.
