Woah Brian that's cool to hear that you were in the Navy!

"The people of the time had their own lives, hopes, dreams, and beliefs. But now they are gone, and that will be us as well someday." I think about this sometimes as well. Will future generations look at the machines we used for transportation, for instance, with as much wonder as we look at folks who used a horse to get around?

"Amazing sometimes how you can just go to a place and find the person you’re looking for." - If more people knew the universe works out this way a lot, I think we'd have more travelers in this world!

"After traveling through some terribly poor places where I observed people happy to just eat rice with their bare hands, I could never truly engage with and enjoy fine dining." Another true quote. I look back on the brands I used to wear and feel like such an idiot. I don't think I'll ever want to lead a life of decadence at all after what I've seen. It's just obnoxious.

Great post Brian.

I'll talk about the Navy on here as well in some future articles, as it's an intricate part of the story. Yes to see the ancient history with my own eyes its incredible. Did you know in Egypt, there is a spot where you can get a picture of the Pizza Hut logo with the Pyramids and Sphinx in the background? What will future humans think of that? Haha.
