Where are you going in life? Do you know? I don't think any of us really knows where we will end up. We are all obviously going to die, but before that what will we do before we get there?
What kind of legacy will you leave behind? The point of this topic is basically that the destination is unimportant, it's about continually moving forward in life and continually reaching small destinations on the way. You start off just learning how to grow up, you take small baby steps forward learning how to walk and talk learning as you go, and you continually do that until you are a young adult, at this point it has been kind of exciting to see what life has to offer but at some point you stumble and get yourself stuck at your first real destination and you can't see a direction to move in.
This is the most important part of your next destination, you have to take a step out of where your stuck at, even if you are scared of what will happen, and then you have to take another and yet another and you keep doing this even if you keep stumbling because eventually you will get out, and you will be moving forward again. Don't give up, because it's too hard, because you tell yourself you can't do it, because no one believes in you. These are all excuses you tell yourself that prevents you from taking the next step. It is nice to have encouragement but the only person who needs to believe in you, is you.
All the experiences in your life will mold you into who you are and who you will be, and the more experiences you have can only make you better as long as you learn something from each one. Its' not about where you stop and rest, its about what you experienced before you got there and what else you will find when you leave.
Its not about where your going but how you get there, its about taking that first step out of your comfort zone and continually moving forward.
