Never simply travel to arrive… that, often, proves less satisfying than experiences along the way. Rather venture the less-travelled, sometimes unknown routes. The most rewarding discoveries and experiences are usually to be found where least expected.
Travel blind to see the most ... a life well-travelled, is a life well-lived. To travel is not always just being away. Leisuring with loved ones over a cup of coffee; or, with yourself immersed in a book or lovely music, are journeys on their own.
The same is also true of everyday life. Mere pursuit of earthly achievements and ideals, often denies the soul a lifetime of experiences. The less structured your experiences, the more fulfilling life in retrospect. Sometimes, for the essence of being, it is better to live more mindful than careful.
Will in years to come, you and your beloved have enough journeys to muse upon? Or will you, too late in life, fret about bygone years of lost experiences?
