In the Sweet By and By -- Featuring Dot-Be Fashion, [[Masoom]], Hairoin and {{BSD Design Studio}}

No matter where you go on this little blue ball we all live on, there you will discover some new or wonderful or awe inspiring thing. Even the dark and gritty sandstorms of the desert literally stir up their world for the length of time they bluster.

I must admit, I have the travel bug in a bad way. I want to visit so many places in the world, but I have a top two on my list. If I could go anywhere at all, and expense wasn't figured in to my decision, I would travel to Ireland and live in a cottage by the sea in a tiny little town.

Just the word - Ireland - conjures up many reactions in me. I think of ancient people who believed in white energy, white light, beings of white light... and I think of what our age teaches us about angels. If it's an ancient world, does that mean more of those creatures of light live there?

I think of haunting music played on old violins and flutes, the giant drum and the dancing that always accompanies this music. I think of pubs, little places really, just a hole in the wall, but in that hole, happy people share a pint and the stories of their day and bygone days.

I think of fierce proud people who were willing to defend themselves against all odds and the bravery they showed when they did so. It's a culture rife with riddles and rhyme and so much beauty. I could just sit there for a long long while and soak it up and then sit some more.

When I look at the second place on my list, it also evokes a number of images in my head and memories from History classes I took. I even took two years of the language so I could go there one day and have a clue what I was reading in the original language. The place - St. Petersburg.

Peter the Great, for whom the city is named, overwhelmed most when they first met him. He was extremely tall for people from his region, and that alone made him a bit fearsome though he was said to have a fair and kind spirit. He also had a great deal of power, first as a Tsarevitch and later as Tsar.

He knew that though Russia had great lands and people reaching across more miles than they could have ever counted, the people beyond their borders would make the difference in his beloved Russia. He traveled and later in life sent emissaries to reach out to that world, learn their customs, and so much more.

I know I get very different feelings as I stop a while and think of these two places. I realize the possibility that I may never get to visit either. That's why it's even more special when I get to visit an array of beautiful places in our Second Life. Tonight, I visited Tokyo for one of the special BOSL events and I loved it.

Whether you travel earnestly, or cross the world with it at your fingertips like I do, I hope you find the chance to do so something very special. I need to meet people from everywhere, learn other languages, explore other cultures and I try to do so with an open mind. I hope our path crosses some day, too.
