Over the course of human history many men and women have risked it all to further better themselves and or better the human race. Way before technology allowed use to see what kind of storms lay ahead, or to even tell us exactly where we were located on the planet, people had to risk life and death to get us to where we are now. Imagine, getting on a wooden boat and setting sail without GPS, cell phone, no electrical equipment at all and just your will to find a better tomorrow and the stars to guide you. Would you take that risk? Imagine being on that ship not knowing if the storm on the horizon is going to be a quick shower or a massive hurricane. Those people who traveled the oceans did not know if they would make it back home from their journey, but they still took the risk. It’s like any idea or dream you chase now. You have no idea what the future holds. There will be dark days and ones that just seem like they are a disaster, but you have to fight through it. Don’t let the fear of the unknown continue to keep you from living your dream. It’s up to us now to continue to take the risks that our ancestors took before. Face that the storm in front of you and make it your bitch.
I got my inspiration for this weeks blog from the time-lapse video above. It’s relaxing and inspiring. Beautiful scenes of life on the big blue sea. This is from the YouTube channel of JeffHK. He has got a ton of other really cool maritime videos to check out so be sure to subscribe.
