7 The Porters Song: A Life Worth Living

  • Resumen

  • Karibu Rafiki, welcome friends!  This was my first Swahili phrase that I learned when I climbed Mt Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania Africa 2010. During that climb, “It’s not the Destination, It's the journey.” from Emerson’s Self-Reliance was on the lips of all of my fellow adventures and the shortened version “It’s the Journey” became our mantra. We used this mantra to temper our expectations as not everyone will summit. When, I asked our African guide, Yusuf, “Do you think I will summit?” He responded mysteriously, “If the mother allows.” I’m not sure what he meant by that. Maybe he meant Mother Kilimanjaro will allow?! If so, what does that even mean? Does Mother Kilimanjaro stand for luck or for fate or for life?! Either way, “it’s the journey” provides exactly what is needed by each individual climber. https://brucewaynemclellan.com/enduring-wonder
