Helen Keller
I must say that I agree with Ms. Keller on this; either you go out and experience all that this world has to offer, or you experience nothing. I actually had a conversation about this during the weekend. If you don’t experience new things, have adventures, and go outside of your normal comfort bubble, you will never grow.
I think that it is important to experience new things all the time. I force myself outside of my comfort zone so that I can have new adventures. Doing the same thing over and over is boring, and there is not a lot learned in the process. Plus, I love having fun stories to share! I don’t want to live my life wishing that I had done more, I don’t want to think about doing things, I want to do them and experience them…now.
This is my time; I’m young, unwed, and childless. If I don’t go out, play, and absorb as much as possible now, how will I when I have real responsibility?

I totally agree--there's only so much time you'll be young and single and have so little to tie you down. Live it up :)
Yay! Get out there and LIVE!
yes, go nuts!!
Very insightful post today Dani, really enjoyed reading this and most certainly agree with much of what you've said - a young person's philosophy that hopefully won't fade with the years :(

Agreed, lets live!
your blog is great! totally agree. i think i started to live life with that kind of thinking when i was 17 and decided to have an adventure in paris on my own. it freaked my family out but i came back unharmed and with a new look on life.
That is fantastic, I mean the quote and your post. I use to think living was doing what you know was right and safe. The I looked up and realized I missed about 10 years of my life. I'm working on this in my own weird way but this concept is still a little difficult for me.
