why i adventure

since i have started my wee little blog i get a lot of reactions, good reactions, about the many adventures we go on. it is awesome to know many of you all enjoy them. what we do is nothing out of the ordinary and nothing that anyone else can't do. we all have adventures in us just waiting to come out and be explored. i am a cautious person by nature and so, going out and being adventurous sometimes can be a little out of my comfort zone but i do it anyways because, to me, life isn't worth living if we don't live a little. i don't think i would ever try sky diving but heck, you can find me somewhere else enjoying some other type of adventure!

i think i would go crazy if i didn't get out and explore. i have a bit of that idle hand syndrome, i don't do well not doing anything at all. so i guess this is where my love of adventure comes in hand. it over powers my cautious personality allowing me to take full advantage of what this amazing life and world has to offer me. i feel if we don't take advantage of it once in a while, there will be a point where i will regret not doing these things when i could. i never was that kid who was out of control or did crazy things so now is my chance to do it my way and i think i am doing it right.

one of the reasons why i blog, is to remember the adventures we have gone on, a way to show myself that i am living my life to its fullest. i feel very grateful that i also have someone to share these adventures with. someone who also enjoys them too and maybe when i am not feeling an idea that he is there to say come on, lets just try it. it is a great way to understand more about yourself. to know your limits and how far you can push yourself. i know i have grown into a better person because of the experiences i have allowed myself to adventure to.

with each adventure, i become more confident with what is important in my life, what can be cast aside and what is worth sticking around for. i know without adventuring, i would not be the person i am today. that is why i adventure.

speaking of adventure, tom and i are packing up and going camping for a few days. we will be back saturday, can't wait to share!
