Maybe one of the most inspiring quotes ever!!! Personally, my favorite one. Since the first time i read it, i felt so inspired, motivated and relieving in many ways. In my opinion, this quote invites you to live your life more relaxed, with less pressure and becoming you the owner of your life. Like writing a novel, choosing the locations, characters, as the quote says, your adventure.
When we start paying attention to these types of quotes we usually are already an adult, so we have less time to put them in to practice, but as older we get, the more we understand the meaning of this idea.
How to make your life an adventure? What a hard question, i think that it has plenty of answers, but with the same base, being yourself. As i mentioned before, in order to chose the characters, locations, etc, you must be yourself. To have an adventure, is a process, maybe of a lifetime, it depend on when you understand and comprehend its meaning. First thing you need to start this adventure, is to find out what activity, career, subject, art, sport, anything that brings you joy and curiosity, anything that brings you happiness and fullness. Secondly, be surrounded by people who push you up to reach your goals and that you can feel at ease. This is very important in order to have where to rely on, where to feel comfortable, where you can find a feedback. Of course, this should be from both sides. Thirdly, maybe the most difficult, many people, including your family, closest friends, might try to stop you, thinking that you are getting into trouble, they would be afraid, desperate, and probably would try to convince you that you have to follow the stereotypical life. People can't stand that you know for what to fight for, that you would give it all for reaching all your goals, and that you are not afraid of nothing. So probably you would have to listen their advise, respect them, but never give up, just you have all the weapons to win this "battle". This people will start understanding you and respecting your decisions once you start this adventure and realize that you are still alive and satisfied. Lately you would become their "teacher". You will understand that they tried to stopped you because they fear for you, but inside themselves they always wished to discover this and create their own adventure, but because of their fears or what others would think about them, they chose not to risk and follow the short "efficient" road. This doesn't make us heroes and make the other villains, we are not smarter, we just chose to live our life how it is meant to be. Do we risk a lot? that's for sure, we can fail too, but we can stand up and start all over again. If we really got the meaning of this quote, we have the responsibility to inspire others, to cheer them up to wake up. It's never too late, is a matter of will. We also have the responsibility of not to judge others, not to bother or try to convince them that we have the truth, this is our own business.
Finally, this is more or less how i interpret this wonderful quote, of course, is just a short summery. Despite the toughness of life, despite all the problems we can have, i think we at least, try to live the life as an adventure, and this go deeper than what happens around you, the economy of your country, poverty, or social status, its a way of living. And becoming an adventurer, means you got the meaning of why you were chosen to come to this world. Have a good time!!!

Is there any alternative road in life?
Hello!!! I'm super excited to start my first blog, i hope it won't be the last one. Before i start, i want to mention, that I'm not a writer, journalist, psychologist, I'm not a professional at all. I'm just a curious guy and a beginner in blogs. So this will allow me to write what i am feeling at the moment, i will just give my opinion, i can be wrong or right, and i can have grammar mistakes, that's for sure!!!
Let's get started. Since a young boy, I've been looking for the alternative sides of mostly everything. My main phrases i said to my parents and teachers would be: "why this?" "Is there any other way?" Unfortunately, i always got bored easily, from a friend talking about his stuff, to a teacher trying to give a moral. Everything about life is repeating the same routine, with different people, places as you go on aging. And that was/is my biggest fear, is there any other way to escape from this?? Of course, it doesn't mean you can't have a great time meanwhile, i think that depends in choosing people and the places, but, is that so possible? As a kid and a teenager, is not so possible, because somehow you don't think about that, and you don't have so many options, at home is your family, at school you will see your classmates, in your free time, you would meet your best friends. So, we can say that we all lived our childhood in a bubble. Of course, we were growing and our parents had to take care of us and was their obligation, I'm just trying to give an overview. That's why between your childhood and teens you want to be older to chose what to do and with whom you would like to be in your life. But...can you really do that? Are you choosing or the society is choosing for you? Well, we start the university, or working, and what? Yes another big bubble appears, we will see the same people, we will have more responsibilities, and again appears new routines, new circles, less free time. You know somebody, you date, you get married, etc. I'm not saying this is bad, or that life sucks, I'm trying to say that put it like this life seems very boring. We are very limited, we follow what is established, there is no escape. I guess, that the only break you can take in life is to try to find to do what gives you pleasure, passion and try to make a living out of it, or not, but this is our treasure, otherwise we would be screwed. But let's try to be screwed stylishly. Let's try to travel, to know new cultures, new people, to listen to other languages, to eat exotic food, to get inspired and to see how beautiful and amazing is this world, and to be thankful to be alive, and that despite we follow the laws and rules, we know that the real life lives inside us: emotions, love, pleasure, etc. All these things comes from inside us, from inside others, and from what inspire us: art, music, nature, for example. So i think that everything that bring us that inner peace, at least for a while, are the little breaks we can get from this tough life. In conclusion, i think the alternative road is inside us, and nobody can take it away from us. We have to work hard trying to stay positive and knowing that we have a shelter inside us that can protect our self from any badness or negativity. I'm working on this, it's an exercise and takes time, it's not easy, but is much better than to be involved in all the bad energies or giving up and being swept by the wave of the madness of the society.
Well, i don't know how i got here, but i was needing to express it, i don't know if it makes any sense or not. And i swear this paragraph has no edition, everything came spontaneously. Stay strong, and have good day!!!
