Our Adventure

ad·ven·ture (ad∙ven´·cher) 
an unusual, exciting, typically hazardous and often romantic experience

I am an adventurer. As I begin this new expedition into the blogging world I feel it would be useful for you to know more about me. Some of my aims are:  To live a healthy life. To love deeply and be loved deeply. To focus on the good and right things of this world and do what I can to change the bad.  To be useful and be passionate about what I do.  To dance, sing, read, reflect, taste, see, feel, write and enjoy my life’s experience.  To live my life adventurously.

I have been on an incredible adventure of a life, so far not only in travel to countries all over the world, but also in life experiences.  My passage has been everything from arduous to effortless and the lessons I have learned are my treasures.  Another great adventurer, Amelia Earhart once said, “When a great adventure is offered, you don’t refuse it.”  So I offer up the idea with her that each life is a great adventure. I challenge you to begin to think of the direction of your life, the expeditions, travels, excursions, culture, the thrilling discoveries and richness you have if you view your life as an epic adventure.

This blog will be a new expedition in my adventure.  An expedition is a voyage or journey for the purpose of exploration or battle or a trek facing unforeseeable circumstances. I don’t know what the outcome will be, but I plan to explore ideas, experiences, travels, and share them with the world as ammunition for the battles we all face in life.  I hope you will join me for this expedition and that the journey will bring you joy. 

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.  So throw off the bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor….Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
