6. Humanity's Test: Do You Pass?

Distance is merely a test of humanity – its patience, the self-will and the willingness to eliminate the physical borders and barriers it creates.


People think that I am lucky to be going all the way to Australia, and I am. This is true, but it is not for the same reasons they believe. I am very blessed to be able to visit my family, my Nana and my Dan Dan, and it is amazing that I can just come here and belong. It seems like I have been here all along… having tea, seeing neighbors, listening to her talk – it is just so natural. Even though we have been separated for ages, it feels as though I have had afternoon tea every day after school with her. 

Neither time nor distance can separate us.
