Title: Found this good quote on living life . . .
Post by: Rachellove9 on September 23, 2011, 03:45:33 PM
"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."
— Chris McCandless

This seems like a good quote for discussion.  I'd like you to tell what it could mean to you.

To me it means I should be more adventurous and maybe try some new things.  If I never go beyond my comfort zone I'll never be all I can be in life.  Tonight I'm going to try a new thing and eat bar food.  That seems pretty adventurous to me lol.

In these bodies we will live. In these bodies we will die. Where you invest your love you invest your life.
