- Mark Twain
This quote meant so much to me when I first realized I was heading to New Zealand. I was just reading it again today and I love the last three words. "Explore. Dream Discover."
Explore: There's so much more to life than routine and comfort. Exploring is going outside and looking at things differently. It's trying new things even if you epicly fail at them. I have explored so many new things here. I love going for runs and just taking time to get my perspective back when I see the mountains and how amazing nature is.
Dream: Well we all pretty much know about this one but I just wrote out some goals today and realize I don't do it enough. There not the kind of "if-I-don't-get-it-done-I'll-freak" goals but I just took time to dream about who I want to become and what I want to be the focus of my future.
Discover: The coolest discovery is ourself. It's also the scariest. I have discovered how much I need Jesus EVERYDAY over these last 9 months in New Zealand. Yes, I have seen amazing landscapes and natural beauty beyond anything I could imagine, but the stuff I have come to see in myself and the fact that God has so much grace for me, is the single most overwhelming thing I have discovered here.
