Adventure. It is not always what it seems. It is not like the movies where all we experience is intense action, pithy sayings and "in-the-nick-of-times". It is much more than that and less. Adventure has the anticipation of something new and exciting, but also the dread of the unknown. Adventure is dreaming big and yet having to pack a certain weight in your luggage so as not to have to pay more to the airline. Adventure is meeting exciting and interesting people right beside the the weird, smelly, annoying and scary ones. It is rising to the challenge and overcoming and failing flat on your face. It is sharing your joys, hurts, triumphs, pains and love. Adventure is not what it seems when you are going through it, but wait a few weeks for the experiences to become great stories that turn into legends.
Adventure is about experiencing all this with those close around who you share this life with and get to make a difference in this world. I thank God for His gift of adventure. His gift of life. His gift of the mountain top the valley and everything in between. For what he has given to me to use to help others.
Go out today and live the life God gave you.
You will never know where it can lead you.
From one who will not shrink back.....
