AOM Meditations: 120519

by Kenton Nelson

~*~

Thanks to our Friend, David, for sending us this meaningful quote


“The difference between an ordinary life and an extraordinary life is only a matter of perspective. Pull the blinds. Look around you. It is a mad, mad world and you do not require ten digit bank accounts to immerse yourself in it. Travel down dusty roads without a destination in mind. Climb a mountain and scream out into the void. Kiss the hell out of a stranger. Skinny dip in a lake. Get lost and lose yourself (they are two separate things). Explore the wilderness (especially the one within). Think less of destiny and more of the moment right here. Because when you are old and ill with your loved ones around you, fame won't matter, nor will the extent of your wealth. You are the sum of the stories you can tell.”

~Beau Taplin

That picture seems to have influences of Edward Hopper and Thomas Hart Benson.

This is a great quote and truly good advice. While reading it, to me, it actually seems like something you would have written. Thanks to you and David for sharing this. It does put things into perspective!
