“Am I missing out on an incredible adventure? Am I jeopardizing friendships with those I cherish? Am I the one who plays it safe? What experiences await me? Why should I seize this opportunity?

As humans, we crave connection. We need time to unwind with those we trust, yet often we hold back. We say, ‘Not today,’ but why? If we seek attention and companionship, what keeps us from embracing it? Fear—fear of what we might do, where we might go, and who we’ll share those moments with.

This is worth my time. In the future, when I have children, what will I tell them? That I played it safe while my friends ventured out? I’d rather say I lived fully and embraced the experiences life offers. I. Lived.

So, why do we hesitate? Why does overthinking dictate our actions?

Why do adventures come at moments when we hesitate to join? What holds us back?

I’ve come to realize that I can’t deny this urge. I refuse to sit idly by and wonder. I will not miss out on grand adventures, nor lose touch with those I hold dear. I choose to live fully. What do I stand to miss?

Would the universe shift if I choose to stay back? Would the Earth alter its course? Would I transform in the process?

The stars are aligned, so who am I to hold back?”

“So is that a yes?” Lucy said

“Yeah, sure I can make it” Bob then walked off wondering how in the world he could make it.
