ADVENTURE

ADVENTURE

The world and everything in it has evolved over time, great inventions has been innovatively improved and transformed into better versions and greater quality; all these has been possible because some men do not sit still and bask in the euphoria of what they have done, and achieved, rather they have gone ahead to break seals and stamps to give us better lives.

Life is best lived as an adventure, you cannot get the best of life living in a box, in a regimented, and controlled lifestyle. Safety does not guarantee progress, but taking risks is the only way through which we can attempt reaching unknown heights.

Andre Gide once said, “Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” we cannot discover new landmarks, new territories, new horizons if we do not leave our comforts zones and go into the depths of the sea, the thick of the jungle, and beyond the atmosphere into spaces ordinarily unreachable, we will remain here as eagles with wings capable of flying into the skies, but choosing to scramble for feed on heaps of rubbish.

We are not trees, we do not have roots, we are mobile, dynamic, and extraordinary beings, we are meant to explore, dominate, create, and rule our world, and this can't be done when we have rooted ourselves in place. If we must live our best lives, and be what and who we are meant to be, we must go out of our boxes into the wild and take the risks, because like Paulo Coelho said, “The danger of ADVENTURE is worth a thousand days of ease and comfort.”
