There are many ways to go on a journey these days, but all require some preparation, some waiting, some anxiety perhaps, a few farewells…and security checks. Yes, even if it’s just you checking the safety of your car, your route, your luggage, or your home while you are away. A journey always requires some concern for safe travel and the security of the travelers and their belongings. Although it may be tedious and annoying at times, when we think about the disasters we might avoid through being careful, it is well worth the trouble.
