Adventure Awaits
Approach each day with excitement because adventure awaits!
Life is a series of adventures. Maybe not the kind you buy a ticket and stand in line for, or the kind you pack a bag and get to the airport early for, but even more amazingly, the kind that you can't plan for because you don't even know they are coming! The moments that you are about to venture into have not yet been written. The wisest man on Earth cannot predict what will happen in the next moment of your life. The smartest physicist, the most brilliant psychiatrist, the most accurate meteorologist (wait, is that last one an oxymoron?)- none of them know what is going to happen to you next. Will you bump into an old friend at the grocery store, and end up going out to dinner? While at dinner, will you have a discussion about the loving the beach, only to have the server over-hear and ask you if you want to take his free week at a beach house that he won in a raffle? Probably not, actually. But the point is that you never know, and therein lies the adventure.
Being an adventurer is not about having enough currency to create one, rather it is about having enough desire to find one. Your life is only as boring as you decide that it is. Be kind. As you let people in, your interactions with them will lead you down new and exciting paths. (No, that is not from a fortune cookie, but read it again because it really sounds like it is.) Take opportunities that are presented to you, and don't decide you won't try new things because you can think of 100 reasons why you may fail. Be present. Be in the moment. Stop being a control freak, and let life take you on a wild ride. You just might realize that you're on an adventure.
