When I was 16 I knew very little. Ten years later I could say that I 'know' even less. Reality is constantly changing, constantly evolving. There are so few certaintys in life, and the longer we live, the more we may experience this as truth. When I was 16 I meet a good friend, a mountain of a man named Juan. We called him Juanito, Little John. He nicknamed me Matchupichu, after the real Machu Picchu. Throughout the years this nickname has helped me to trigger my own internal strength when I needed it most. It has been a constant reminder of the greatness that is and has been in the world all around us. Juan helped to teach me that strength and wisdom are all around us all the time. All we have to do is embrace them as our own. Tá Mé Anseo.
