A jaunt!

“Without new experiences, something inside of us sleeps. The sleeper must awaken.” – Frank Herbert

When do you know you are having an adventure? When its terrifying when its happening but is fun to talk about later.

I have been pampered to such an extent by my better half the past year that it was terrifying and tedious to travel alone. For the first time again after several years, i remembered the feeling of my dad dropping me at school... i felt like walking away from the shade of a nurturing tree into something unknown - rain / harsh sun? I missed him every moment for those few hours, his reassuring presence, his smile, his care, the security. It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves - in finding themselves.

One cannot know the heights one can soar until the wings are spread out wide, poised to fly!
