Flight Journal on September 22, 2005 -- Frankfurt, Germany to Accra, Ghana

I smile as I fly over the land of Africa....from this view you can only see a vast land of dessert with a shoreland speckled with sandunes and crystal water far below. It looks beautiful even now but within minutes the landscape changes to green as the the tan and greyness of the dessert is left behind.

Today, I will reach the real Africa and the song playing via Luftansa Airways tells the tale of my journey. Listen and think of me. Life is good!!!

Title: I Don't Want to Be

"I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me"
