Adventures on the Plateau !

BYU-IDAHO TALK by Scott Wood, "Value of Adventure"

For a few months not I have been feeling like my life is in a flat place. I had a wonderful conversations with one of my roommates a few nights ago. We talked about desires, dreams, ambitions, goals, but most of all we talked about what we wanted out of life. I have often pondered, "Kristin, what do you want most in life?" and I will be honest since that is what a blog is about. I have been waiting around for Mr. Wonderful to come into my life, then from there will my life truly be amazing. NO HONEYCHILD! that is not the answer. I have tons of things I have written on my bucket list that I want to mark off so desperately. I am in my prime now for my life and I need to life it. In the talk above that was read by my wonderful roommate Kandice a quote by Helen Keller has made me excited to live life. “Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing at all.” I love that because often times I have spent my life waiting for this to happen so I can do that! Not anymore, if I want to do something, then by George I'm going to make it happen. There will be balance in this for my life. I am not going to parasail off a yacht or go skydiving over the Grand Canyon, but I know I want to live life not wait on it to start. I am a new woman now this semester. I have decided to create goals, work on accomplish them, and love doing them!!! Please read the above talk...It is so insightful and amazing!!!
