Making Your Life an Adventure

Events small and great can be considered adventures; it all depends on how we view them

Adventure.

The word can bring to mind many scenarios. We may think of Lewis and Clark crossing uncharted territory that later became the United States. We may imagine Amelia Earhart flying solo over the Atlantic, Neil Armstrong taking that first step for mankind when he set foot on the moon, or Jacques Cousteau exploring the bottom of the ocean.
