“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page” said Saint Augustine.
Now let’s break this axiom down in order to understand this completely. In a world so big we always are so much surrounded by our problems and multitude of stresses. This makes us forget how grand and magnanimous life is. And you can’t discover this fact if you aren’t stepping out of your routine. It’s obvious that stepping out isn’t that easy; you need a purpose, a motive, a motto or a mantra so to speak before you discover other lands.
Now the question arises. What is that code? What could be the purpose of excursions? What is the mantra? The answer to all of these questions is ‘go find them’. You can’t see the sun from the inside. The great Christopher Mccandless quoted “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.”
