Ellen's Blessing

The blessing to mark the beginning of our journey.

Dear WP travelers on this sacred pilgrimage

When Jensine, Loung and I dreamed of this journey, we envisioned an inspired group of change agents and social activists opening our hearts in Cambodia --healing and being healed -- on this sacred pilgrimage.

Now the deep intention setting begins. May this call evoke each heart's purpose on what this journey inspires as a personal call to action and quest for deep renewal.

As we turn a page toward justice in marking the trials of Cambodia,
as we soar with the momentum of a new leader who proclaims, hope, empathy, service and global understanding, may this journey serve to be a living, breathing force for collective good and personal healing. May the perennial beauty of an enduring culture enliven the senses. may bonds of connection, support and global understanding awaken each heart. May the shared voices of Cambodian activists for
women and children be heard. May the pilgrimage provide a ritual of joy and a compassionate witness to suffering. And may the deep adventures create tangible positive impact, knowing the power of one voice to change the collective heart of the world.

With love and blessings Ellen
