Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?

"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 conservatism - -



- - all of which may appear to give one piece of mind; but in reality, nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future."
-Christopher McCandless (Into the Wild)


 

 It breaks my heart to know that there are people out there living an unhappy life just because they are too afraid to leave what they know. They are too afraid of losing what they think is their world. Or even worse, they have convinced themselves that they 'are happy' or that 'this is what I want'. When really, it's not what they want. They're afraid to admit it. 
It's so sad. 
Get out there.
Live your life.
You only have one go at it.
Do you really want it to be something you end up wishing it wasn't?
