Take The Detour

Some of the best things in life
will be found beyond the exit ramp
of your comfort zone.
(Didn't write it. Wish I had.)

When you dare to step beyond
what you've always known
and what you've always done
and what you're comfortable doing
you will find a certain sort of
tangible anxious excitement
that emanates from learning
from growing
from exploring
from stretching
from actually being alive.
Being alive to newness
to challenges
to experience
to broadening
everything about you.

Take the detour.
It's more than worth it.
