PHILOSOPHY

"Make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. 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 conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging 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. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy. But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.”

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took my first big trip to Greece by myself last March and stayed in Santorini for four days. I rode on an ATV around the backside of the island at sunset and saw the ocean from above sea level for the first time in my life.

I saw the sunset over the Italian Dolomites which hiking down from 11,000 feet.

I saw a homeless man dancing around an entertainer in Venice and give him his change.

I have lived in three different states, six different cities, two different countries, and two different continents in the last three years.
