In spite of the famous line from the movie Jaws, you don’t always need a bigger boat. Sometimes what you already have is quite enough to get you where you need to go, even though you might feel dwarfed by what you see around you.
What about your circumstances seems daunting, and what do you trust to see you through?
A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. … We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.
―John Steinbeck
What has a trip taught you—whether or not you were looking for the lesson?
Of course the barbed wire of our limitations is always in the foreground. There is no good in pretending that those fences aren’t entirely real. But it also doesn’t hurt to lift your gaze toward what is beautiful and out of reach.
What do you look toward, even though you may never touch it?
There is always a train that you do not board, often one that is far more entrancing than the one headed in the direction you need to go.
What journey do you wish you could have taken?
Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.
―Matsuo Basho
What journey have you taken today?
