Apr 12 2025 - Missing Home

Guest Host, Steve Adams of Lynchburg, VA
In 2019, I found myself at a café atop a mountain overlooking

Phewa(Phee-wa) Lake in Pokhara Nepal. We were having breakfast and

waiting for the Sun to peak over the Himalayan mountains as the

morning mist rolled across the valley below. The assembled group

included a local with whom I still communicate with frequently and the

moment in time is etched into my memory.

At some point during the breakfast, I began feeling profoundly sad and

reached over to get my hot tea. I excused myself and wandered over to

the safety rail and stared off deep into the snowcapped Annapoorna

Mountains. In that moment, I missed my family and wondered what

they were doing or if they were wondering what I might be up to half a

world away. Someone in the group took a picture of me not knowing I

had wet eyes at the moment.

Today, I miss the friend who was with us as much as I missed my family

that day, but the joy is knowing that the connections we make in life

are the legacy we truly own.
