This is a picture is from the plane on our way to Morocco. Most of the people on the flight with us were heading to Mecca, for the annual Hajj (pilgrimage). It was such a great flight -- everyone was simultaneously calm and nervous. These people knew they were on a journey of a lifetime, and they were so preparing for this trip. They spent their time studying to make sure they were knew everything about this journey... and yet, we all knew that it didn't matter how much studying they did that they would never truly know what expect.
I've just been thinking about Hajj a lot, and my heartaches to go.... I remembered these photos, and thought I would share one since that is where my head is right now.
