I just came from a backpacking adventure in Europe.
It had been a blast !
It was supposed to be my last hurrah as a single person.
In my part of the globe, there is a certain expectation
that at a certain age you’re supposed to settle down, have kids, have a house-
the whole nine yards..
But seeing Europe for the first time made me realize
there so much more to discover about the world.
I guess am a wide-eyed explorer not yet willing to let
go of the joy of aimless wandering.
The trip has changed my game plan in life.
And rather timely in a surreal way, the death of Steve
Jobs reminded me of his words…
“Because almost everything
— all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -
these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly
important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to
avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked.
There is no reason not to follow your heart.”
So here I am throwing caution to the wind and lookin
forward to another adventure next year yeba
