It wasn't till we looked down we realized the most fun we had was looking up.
We find ourselves walking robotically on the yellow brick road, knowing the exact trail to get to the waterfall at the end. Screw it. Take another trail and who cares if you get lost. Embrace that feeling of being frightened, because you might not feel it again. Plus, The fun is in the journey, right?
Our goal is to reach the top in the lowest time possible, because every one wants to be the best. Screw it. Take some time, look back, and embark on the progress you've made. Or maybe I'm just tired and I want to take a break. (Don't tell my friends I'm out of shape)
We spend way to much time looking at the ground, playing it safe. Making sure we don't step on a rock and "roll our ankle". Screw it. Look up, and run like you're being chased by your ex-girlfriend. Illuminate yourself with the flowers and pick one to give to that girl you're with. She might turn out to be something special.
Let's take some time and sit on the rocks together. Let's have a conversation that'll make me fall in love with you. Let's embrace that careless feeling as we watch the sun go down. And finally, let's hold hands as we walk back to my truck in the pitch black, because that's an adventure.
And life is ALL about having adventures.
