» Maryel - I definitely agree with you Arnvid
As you know my love of Egypt has given me the interest to get to know her. However, I am still a rank beginner. I do believe however, I have felt the essence of the land and spirits that hover and soar above her. I have travelled between the dimentions and while I was there felt as if I was Egyptian. Thank you for your interesting article. Mary EllenPS If you have a true passion for Egypt, I believe she will let you in on some of her secrets. ME

In response to message posted by Maryel:When it come to Egypt I guess we all are beginners somehow. Remember Lenny Bell who was head of the excellent Chicago House mission in Luxor when he was there his last season. He was asked: "do you feel you seen all of Luxor now?". He answered, "seen all? Have only been here for twenty years!"
Guess I'm getting close to same conclusion...
And Egypt, she is letting you in on some of her secrets - that's for sure, but in return she give you an equal amount of secrets to unveil.
Thanks, Arnvid

As I age I understand I can live my entire life and there will always be many things I will never know even if I spend all my waking hours trying. Life is just too short.Thanks for this enlightened look at Egypt through the mentioned travelers' and your eyes. This is a wonderful revelation of the complexity of your country's birth and history.
