Discover Wanderlust

Discover wanderlust. J.R.R. Tolkien said, "Not all who wander are lost." The definition of wanderlust is a strong desire to travel. Now unfortunately most of us cannot just drop everything and travel at a moments notice. Sometimes our finances don't allow us to travel where we really want to go. Nonetheless the benefits of travel make it a worthy aspiration. We don't always have to travel far to see and experience new things. People we have never met are just around the corner. Becoming a tourist in your own town allows you to discover a wealth of experience without having to break the bank. It's not unusual for people to never get around to exploring the sights of their own hometown. Now with the internet it's quite easy to locate those gems around you. I always feel invigorated when I've traveled somewhere new. It seems to motivate me on my road to personal growth. Roman Payne said it best when he said, "To wander is to be alive."

Challenge: Choose a weekend to discover somewhere new in your town or a neighboring community. Record in your Discovery Journal your experience. Sketch or photograph your discoveries as well.
