"It is all about our children people!"

I have been on the road for 5 weeks now, and I spend a lot of time alone. So I guess, I have a little time to think about the world we live in. Please, think about the message I am trying to make with my journey. It is about living your life to the fullest, that of course doesn´t mean to just live in the present. Native Americans believe, that we live for our grandchildren. What we do now will directely impact them. I am really getting into my cause, and I find myself wanting to continue my journey. I feel sad that it will be over soon and also that I haven´t really done enough. I would like to just keep going south, but of course I also have financial responsibilities like student loans. Anyways, that means I have to get my ass back to Steamboat and start working again.

I am less than 400km away from my destination and could be there as early as friday. Time and life itself just passes by so fast sometimes, we wonder where the years have gone. I hope that I did make a difference, and everything was worth it. That at least one person changed their way of life, their outlook of life itself because of me. So please slow down a bit and focus on the smaller things in life, and what really is important. If you are Italien, of course it is family! If you are not Italian, it still should be family!!!! Family is forever!!! Sorry, I am going soft a bit! I am still a tough guy, a lot tougher than Arnold.

Thanks so much for your time and please think about the cancer and how so many people are sick. It can only get worse. So, time for change is now! Thank you very much for your time.

Sincerely,

Harald Wilhelm Niedl
