The Journey Is The Destination

By the time he was twenty-two, Dan Eldon had led a relief mission across Africa; worked as a graphic designer in New York; studied (intermittently) at four colleges; travelled through Europe, Africa, Japan, and the United States; founded a charity for Mozambiquan refugees; directed a film; written a book; started up his own photography business; and become a photojournalist for Reuters news agency, covering the famine and civil war in Somalia. There, in 1993, he was killed in an eruption of mob violence while on assignment. In a world of rules and regularity, Eldon was a renegade, a risk-taker, and an adventurer. His is no ordinary journal; it is an astonishing collage of photos, drawings, words, maps, and clippings that reveals his strange and vivid life. The Journey is the Destination is at once the vision of an artist in his prime and the unrestrained outpourings of a young man just beginning to live.

This book is a true story of three sisters who lived in South Carolina and were sold as slaves to a master in Mississippi. They were able to escape from him, ride a ferry as Stole-Away, swim the Mississippi River, hide in the woods and make it to a place that they had never heard of. They worked in fields with other slaves until they were able to travel to Mississippi. They married and started a community of their own.

"Three friends. One fateful night. And a betrayal that never dies..." -- cover.

"There!" You finally made it. You have reached the goals that you had set. Yet somehow you feel like something is missing and you set out on another adventure to reach your next "There". Have you ever wondered where the proverbial "There" is? Have you ever thought that if you could just get "There", everything would work out fine? In life, it seems as if people live in the extreme of one mind set or the other. They view "there" as a place, rather than a journey. People seem to always be seeking and yet not finding their "There". In Getting There, David Limerick teaches that destiny is a journey to be enjoyed and that the proverbial "There" is found in walking out the journey of your life. David teaches you how to change your mindsets and to receive peace that comes with knowing you are walking out your purpose and destiny.
