. . . Adventure is not made up of distant lands and mountain tops, rather it lies in one’s readiness to exchange the domestic hearth for an uncertain resting place. - Reinhold Messner, Free Spirit

It isn’t necessary for us to travel the world in search of the next High Mountain or wild, desolate place to find an adventure.

Adventure lies in our perspective and in our attitude.

It is our approach to life, rather than the actual circumstances of it, that determines how much adventure we have.

Adventure for one person may mean seeking out a dream that has been long neglected.

Perhaps adventure for another means losing weight, changing an outgrown image, getting sober, learning to be in a love relationship, or simply experiencing joy.

It’s good to make ourselves comfortable, but don’t get so comfortable in front of that hearth that you never want to grow or change.

Water that never moves becomes stagnant and poisoned; so it is with the human spirit.

We are given life to live.

Look at your life and see if there is some area where you, too, can seek out an uncertain resting place.

Maybe work, love, or an area of spiritual growth?

Some new or long-forgotten lesson is waiting to be discovered or rediscovered by you.

Say great.

Be uncomfortable for a while.

It’s never too late to learn and experience something new.

Take your life in your own hands and what happens? A terrible thing: no one to blame.-Erica Jong

 What a frightening prospect it is to take your life into your own hands, to decide whether or not you will accept full responsibility for all of your actions and choices.

What an amazing-and sometimes terrifying-freedom complete responsibility for your actions brings!

Sometimes we make mistakes.

Sometimes we stumble and fall. But, the feeling when you finally get it right, when you decide to take that step and it works!

That’s when you discover that those fragile butterfly wings on your back are not there just for ornamentation.

You can fly!

Take charge of your life.

Take responsibility for your actions.

Ultimately no one chooses what you will do but you, anyway.

Enjoy the freedom.

You’ve had it all along.

“What is Brazil’s strategy to cope with the emerging world order? The question has come up time and again in scholarly writings as analysts try to project whether Brazil is bound to be a “responsible stakeholder” or a spoiler of the emerging system. Brazil is as vibrant and messy a democracy as any other: Brazilian presidents preside over an often-fractured governing coalition and they face the challenge of managing a vast federal state with an unruly set of bureaucracies and semi-independent agencies operating within it.”
