The Road Less Traveled

There is the wide road used by most people of this world and there is the narrow way, the Road Less Traveled. This blog is about experiences, people and places on the narrow path. I lived and worked in North Africa for many years. That is my outer journey. But my inner journey is spiritual, global and universal. In 2012, I moved to the Golden Triangle region of SE Asia (Laos, Myanmar, Thailand). I have started a whole new adventure. Come join me on the Road Less Traveled. Without and within.

Beginning to Wonder

Ever wonder why "the Best" people are not? Why countries which follow the "Best" religion are not? Or why those who have no religion or faith are nicer and "better" than religious nations?

We had those conversations recently.
Fatimatu said, "I don't understand it. All the Muslim countries should be the best. We have the right religion. But, Europeans who don't follow Islam, are nicer than us. They treat people better at work. Seriously, I would rather have a job with a foreigner than for a Moroccan. This is not 100%, but in general, it's true. A foreigner who says the the "shahada", they will enter paradise first, before us."

Does religion have power to change lives and make people better?
