"Twenty Years From Now....."




What adventures do you have on your horizon.....?
What hopes and enthusiasms will you create these seasons.....?
The time will pass anyway... So what do you want to do out there; to experience; to share; during these adventure filled days while out in our wild lands.....?
What do you want to try... Which different adventure do you wish to enjoy, even if only once...?
Hope is a process of keeping our adventure dreams alive...
Enthusiasms seem to be about staying connected to what creates fun and challenge for us within our adventure endeavors...
It is, for all of us, very much about small steps, initial goals, short terms plans... Yet the above quote re-minds us of the longer term perspective too...
I get a sense of this when I muse over how it is a wonder to me that I've tried so many different adventures, let alone kept going now for over thirty years...
We do seem to create our own adventure futures by present efforts... As in Blair's image of the "Once & Future Forest" above, what we plant and tend, is what will grow around us...
Such questions and musings may help us clarify and amplify our adventure motivations...
