Expand your territory

Imagine our ancestors searching to find a new forest with rare berries, or discovering a new lake as they move away from their typical gathering space.  Even though we now live in a world of planes, vehicles and internet we often stick within the circle of familiarity that we visit often.  We take the same route to work, visit the same friends and shop in the same spots. 

Spend some time choosing a place to expand your territory.  Could you go catch a movie in another town, grab groceries from a different market or try a blog or website you haven't been to yet?  Feel the changes this new experience creates within you.  Are you more aware of your presence, of those items and people around you?

Happy travels.

  1. I like this...it reminds me of stepping outside of one's comfort zone. Something we all need to do more of!

    1. Just like learning to run, you push your boundaries each time and soon you are running a marathon - and I know you like to run!

  2. So frustrating. I should have stopped while I was ahead. I posted a lengthy comment and it got erased. Ugh!

    1. That bites Pablo. You always have amazing things to say. Hopefully your computer can find the words again today.
