The Traveler

Courage is a traveler
Ready to take on the world
Step by step

The feeling that comes to you
A mixture between fright and excitement

Stepping out of your comfort zone

Exploring
Discovering

Doing more of what scares you
Not knowing what's coming next
Yet being ready for whatever life throws your way

Feeling your heart beat quickly
To the sound of your feet
As you step onto land foreign to you

Doing it even though it scares you
Because the feeling of satisfaction in the end is something you can't resist

Going beyond the limit
Because you have the power to do so

Nothing standing in your way
But your fear itself

Realizing that your adventure starts just by opening the front door
Courage does not wait for the opportunity
A traveler does not wait for the right moment
Because that moment is now

That good feeling you get in the end

Courage.
Taking risks so you don't spend the rest of your life thinking you're incapable of anything

Traveling.
Taking risks so you have memories to look back on in your old age

Courage comes in many ways
Whether it's climbing a mountain
Or trying something new

Courage is an essential part of life
Through courage

You grow,
You experience ,
You live.

Disappointment

Disappointment triggers powerful emotions
The feeling of determination 
in fear of letting a loved one down
or hopelessness when waiting
for a moment that never comes
Disappointment is complicated, yet 
it is what keeps us moving through life
