5.18.20 // Adventure is a Path

“Adventure is a path.
.
Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world.
.
The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness.
.
In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both.
.
This will change you.
.
Nothing will ever again be black-and-white”.
