The Joy of life

“So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.” 

What cris means is that people live thinking there happy , but they are really not. He says that people think what they do and all is okay, they believe thats the right way to live safe and comfortable. Which is the complete opposite! People live under rules and laws. Preventing them from being free to do what they want to , and actually be happy. I believe cris was right ! i think he was right because nobody knows what being free, really is. They all live under fear and dont get to explore, like he did.

Cris did it! he went on his own journey, not caring about rules, laws or consequences. He was fearless. He went on a adventure, and experienced everything out there in the world. For example, cris rode a canoe , crossing the boarder, without permission or nothing. He didn't even get caught. Cris wasnt scared or nothing.  

My life has totally been conditioned of life to security, conformity, and conservatism. If i met cris, i believe he would question me if i was happy. If i like the way am living, I think cris would encourage me to take risks. Live life to the fullest. GO on adventures, and take a journey. Most importantly, to be free and happy!
