The first paragraph in Reflections: A Journey of Transformation is only one sentence.
The road trip began right after the last session of my last class at my last college job at the end of the spring semester at 9 p.m. on May 23, 2018 — with my three companions in the back seat with their harnesses and safety belts on — and lasted five days, but only because I took the long route, going through Nevada and spending the first night in Las Vegas, a familiar place not too far from home, before getting on the I-40 in Arizona and heading toward the unknown.
It reminds me of Proust... and his long sentences... and madeleines, of course.
