If dont read the rest of the blog read this


"make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy. But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.”

Message from the Author

I don't intend for this blog to be a well thought out and formatted literary work. I would like for it to be more reminiscent of a scrapbook journal like something Christopher would have kept. Documenting thoughts phrases, things that made an impact on him and he had to write down right away so he wouldn't forget. Philosophy and deep thoughts to review later as well as the action of daily life as he adventured throughout the country. I believe that this format is more useful to the reader to connect with Chris as it gives you better insight as to the way he thought and lived.

God Bless All!
