#451: Explore (Friday, August 21)

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page." -Saint Augustine

Travel is expensive. But you don't need a lot of money, or to even go far, to explore. Pick a local place - somewhere you've never been but have always been curious about or just a random place on the local map - and go.

How is this being awesome to someone else, you ask? Exploring broadens your mind and your perspectives and also makes you more open. Diversity of perspective is always a good thing. :)

Or, in the words of Mark Twain:
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness...Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
