“Today our world cries out all around us. Suffering and brokenness, hunger and exploitation cling with desperation to worn prayers for rescue. An entire people remain without rights, aching at ever continuing news of the murder and abuse of their loved ones. The Tibetan plight continues…and they are not alone.
Maybe prayers go unanswered most when our voices remain silent and our hands remain still.”
-Patrick Covert
I am nearly finished with an edit of the fourth episode of the series. I had to go back tonight to read the travel blog and reflect on the thoughts and emotions of that time. It is one of my favorite parts of the journey for many reasons. The time we spent with Mr. Buche at the Tibetan refugee camp in Pokhara being not in the least of them.
“Life is a book.” he said as we entered his house and he sat us down to Chai and a plate full of delicious crackers… “Those who stay at home read only one page.”
