get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life. Money is worth nothing if you cannot spend it on a little adventure. While we are deeply involved in our hectic schedule, we forget that time is slipping through our fingers. Escape life for a little while because an experience is far more valuable than money will ever be.  The feeling of being away from your workplace and not having to worry about the never-ending piles of files and being away from your boss for a few days is pure bliss. The purpose of life, after all, isn’t staying rooted
at one place, but it is about exploring all the possibilities and reaching out to a richer life.

Your life problems might be huge. They might

be eating you up slowly and you can’t find a way to figure things out. Travelling gives you a new perspective of looking at your life.  When you meet different people, experience their culture, know their mindsets and listen to their tales, you will look at your own issues differently. It will make you understand that your problems do not mean the end of the world for you, people have it worse but they somehow get past them. You get a bigger picture of the world. Your thinking is altered and things will not seem the same to you.
You will grow and you will not remain the same person that left home a few days back.

Life is short and the world is wide. One

day you might wake up and realize that you don’t have time to do everything that you have always wanted to do, anymore.

Let your gypsy soul take charge.  Leave not a thing on your bucket list undone, for future holds no guarantee.
