Exploration...

There is so much to explore, how could we possibly scrape the surface in one lifetime?

Lately, I've found myself wondering what type of relationship I would have had with my dad, had I known he'd be leaving me after 16 years? I wonder what I would have changed or done differently. He loved to travel, that was his work...is that where I get my love for changing landscapes and sprawling land? He was an artist...is that where I get my craving for art and beauty. He was so many things...will I be? Am I capable of doing all of the things I desire in this lifetime?

I am inspired to travel right now. As my 3-week trip to Costa Rica approaches, I'm dying inside of excitement! I can't wait to bask in the sun, witness the amazing coastal riches, and natural untapped wildlife!!! Aughh...I feel like a hippie-free-lovin' granola, but it's JUST the beginning. It is just one thing to check off my bucket list! Don't waste this life, don't take one minute for granted...let's get checking.
