Life ambitions

One of my many dreams in life is to travel all over the world. Explore, write, and take pictures of my journey and accomplishments. I would love more than anything to study the different cultures from around the world. I can just imagine meeting new people, and it is amazing to think of how they might someday impact my life and way of living. It has always been a dream of mine to learn about the many cultures, languages, traditions, customs, history etc. of other people. The opportunity to travel and fulfil all of these ambitions would be a wish come true. It would bring much joy to my life and I can only imagine how much I would be able to learn. How much happiness helping them would bring to my life. It would be very interesting to live their way of life for a couple days. I find comfort in the fact that I may someday make a difference in this world, even if it is only the smallest difference.
I would also love to travel the exquisite landscapes the beauteous earth has provided. Climb tall mountains, search ravishing forests, and swim in the numerous seas. I get giddy just thinking about it! But the beauty is only half of the experience. In the end it is the knowledge and memory of the peoples faces that will stay with me. The spirit in their eyes and the warmth from their kind hearts. It is me that I will hopefully find through pursuing this dream. It is the satisfying feeling of changing the world one moment at a time.
I encourage everyone to follow their dreams. Wake up and smell the fresh air, feel the sand in between your toes and listen to the breeze. The sky is the limit and the only thing holding you back is yourself. God gave you the talents and you made the dream. So live it.
