Things I have done...
At 17: Gone off on student exchange to the other side of the world by myself and survived (1) having no support from the exchange agency when I got there, and (2) my first host family asking me to leave and finding myself a new family.
At 19: Moved to the big(-ish) city for university.
At 21: Gone hang-gliding off a perfectly good cliff (and loved the feeling of flying)
At 27: Taken a chance and married someone.
At 29: Packed up and shifted interstate.
At 31: Realised the best thing to do was walk away and save myself.
At 32: Spent 7 days in the wilderness, white-water rafting.
At 33: Travelled part of South America with a good friend and a vague plan, seeing the Atacama Desert and Machu Picchu and surviving 3 days trekking the Andes.
At 34: I can't guarantee it'll happen, but I've got one hell of a plan...
The point is, stop being afraid and reach for your dreams. After all, we've made it this far, self, haven't we?
