New eyes

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new landscapes but in having new eyes". (Proust)

I'm 50 years old and having lived in Ayrshire, Scotland, all my adult life, came with my wife Sheena to live in Rwanda in August 2006. I'm hoping to have a double voyage of discovery - both new landscape and new eyes.

Comfort

Comfort – cocoon.

Changes priorities;
Conceals need;
Clouds horizons;
Closes eyes;
Constrains movement;
Cramps muscles;
Cripples risk-taking;
Chokes spirit;
Congeals blood;


Comfort – coffin.
