The Greatest Adventure

Like the name of the blog implies, this is my blog about what will soon be one of my greatest adventures. In the spirit of this blog, and what it means to me, my inaugural post is simply the lyrics to this wonderful song from the Rankin and Bass animated movie, "The Hobbit". It is a favorite of mine, and in part, has helped inspire me to stop dreaming, wake up and live life!

As for the adventure itself, I'll fill in the details as the days go by. Pictures and videos (hopefully) will be plentiful as I catalog my journey from what who've I've become, to who I would like to be.

THE GREATEST ADVENTURE


The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.
The chances, the changes are all yours to make.
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.
The greatest adventure is there if you're bold.
Let go of the moment that life makes you hold.
To measure the meaning can make you delay;
It's time you stop thinkin' and wasting the day.
The man who's a dreamer and never takes leave
Who thinks of a world that is just make-believe
Will never know passion, will never know pain.
Who sits by the window will one day see rain.
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.
The chances, the changes are all yours to make.
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.

I hope you'll join me on this journey (follow me!) and would love to hear your comments and encouragement. The journey begins in just a few short days.
