Day #10 of Cycle for Hope: 1400km/2000km ✅ 💰Funds raised: $52,113/$100,000 for the Mae Tao Clinic Never imagined that 🇹🇭 Thai Food 🍽️ will look like back to back trips to 7-11 though I must say the selection is pretty wide and I'll highly recommend the squid-ink shrimp pasta 🦐🍝 if you're every passing through... 🛣🚧 Roads have been far less kind in the last couple of hundred kilometres, with just 1 lane for lorries, cars, motorbikes and cyclists like yours truly to share at times- but the drivers have been mostly considerate and graceful. 🌐 Language is a huge hurdle with English being almost non-existent in Southern Thailand, and I've been managing to get around with voice translation apps and Google lens through the small towns. If I've learnt anything so far from this expedition, it would be that things often get harder before they get easier... 💡We often take a long and outsized view of our problems and a short and dwarfed view of our resources. Learning to see things in perspective and with gratitude and not take oneself so seriously can evaporate anxiety. A wise guy once advised me to just keep taking small and manageable steps in the right direction, and that's precisely what I hope to continue doing. Just doing what I can ✌️ ❗Admin reminder: For donations directly to the Mae Tao Clinic, please send a screenshot of the receipt to cycle2000forhope@gmail.com so that we can track your contribution 🙏 See the full details/progress at: https://bit.ly/2000cycle #fundraiser #refugee #cycling #bangkok #singapore #myanmar #maetao #healthcare #education #appeal #campaign #donate #help #adventure #journey

That wise man is precisely right :-) A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step... And just by continually putting one foot in front of the other; making the necessary adjustments when faced with obstacles; and picking ourselves up when we fall, reorientate and move again... More power to you,, Jeshua Soh :-)
