Why Do I Travel?
I've been haunted by this question ever since I did blogging and now is the best time to answer it, now that I'm in transition from teens to my twenties.
I've been through so many obstacles in life and now I'm a thirds done in accomplishing it. I've seen a lot of places, places that will be with me for the rest of my life, inspired me to do the things I enjoy. As I can see it, my happiness coincides with travelling, viewing this early in my life I can proudly profess that I am happy, and it may sound narcissistic but that's all that matters. The chills that you get on your trips and the day dreams incurred on my everyday life, all because of the experience, thrills and joys that was imparted to me.
The dictionary may say that travelling is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations. While for me, I view it differently, It's all about the things that hone me to be a better Jhudiel that I am today, well at least I think I am. Well, that's the point, you will be able to understand yourself better. It teaches you so many things that being stationary doesn't.
A number of people says that travelling is a waste of money. Yeah, it does cost you to travel but it does pay off. It's like buying a new gadget but it stays with you f-o-r-e-v-e-r, investing in stuffs that will not wither and will be with you until you die. If you do not have the money then save, I don't have a tons of money to spare but I can allot some and that adds up as my travel funds. Cash gifts of course also adds up. As for those who's still not convince, I prefer travelling than doing drugs, smoking cigarettes and the likes. There are things that will be sacrificed as you go along, but I will tell you one thing, it's fulfilling.
Now that I am on my twenties, what do I plan in life? I will strive harder. I plan to be an engineer and make my parents proud. My dream in life is that even on my parent's golden years I could fulfill what my siblings cannot. I wish that I could have all the resources I needed to make them happy and for them to accompany me on my travels that they have the capacity to move along with my pace. I'll probably read this again on a couple of years and share what progress have I done. From then on, let's just see what God's plan will be.
