How Big is Your World?

“Do not stop thinking of life as an adventure. You have no security unless you can live bravely, excitingly, imaginatively; unless you can choose a challenge instead of a competence” ~Eleanor Roosevelt
Your 4 walls:
The world can be such a small place if you shut down, if you occupy just the 4 tiny walls of your cubicle. As the world recedes away from you, you lose sight of yourself. Of what makes you amazing, unique, of the strengths and capabilities that you could develop- if only you reached out.As your world shrinks, so do your spirit and mind, until all that is left is a shell of the life you could possess.
But if you decide to stand up, to rise out of your chair and set foot on the path to travel and adventure, oh how the world opens up! It widens until it is unimaginably large- So immense that you may never hope to explore all of its beauty and grandeur. And as the world widens so do your mind and spirit. You learn to understand yourself in new ways. You grow and renew yourself, your purpose and your motivation to strive for more every day. This is my source, my motivation for adventure, travel… for life.
How BIG is your world?
