Begin living your adventurous life today, at your own comfort level!
I have a debilitating fear; a fear of missing out. For the past two years I have been a nurse at a rehab/long term care center. I cared for hundreds of people that would share their unrealized dreams with me. People would repeatedly say, “All I want is to check off this or that from my bucket list.” Most patients had little hope of ever leaving the facility again, let alone travel to a far away destination. These beautiful people contributed to my fear. I am afraid that when my time on this earth is over, I will have unrealized adventures and dreams. So, I’ve decided my life will be an accumulation of adventures starting now. There are so many things to be seen in the world; delicious and unique foods to try, complex and knowledgeable people to learn from, adrenaline to feel, and places to see near and far from home. This blog will be my record. Every time I post, I will be fulfilling a promise to myself and those wonderful people at work that changed my life and future. If what I write pushes one person to also begin fulfilling their dreams today, it will be worth it. Why wait? We can never guess what tomorrow will look like. Let’s not wait another day to begin our adventure.
