Telling Use of Language --- Just Enjoying the Journey

A very dear friend of mine and one of my undergrad professors is probably one of the most amazing men I know. He is always very content and happy with what he has. He built the house that he lives in, which is a log cabin out in the woods. He drives a nice Porsche and he has a lovely wife who he loves very much. He and I have worked together on different projects over the years and as a result we have communicated back and forth with each other quite often through email and hand written correspondence. He would always end his letters with the phrase, "just enjoying the journey." I always loved this because it showed how at peace and satisfied he was. His calmness was communicated and wrapped up in this phrase. His fun loving nature captured in just a few well written words... Just enjoying the journey.
