I'm sitting in my living room looking at my newest purchase. A World Map!
Where most people would deem the "prize spot" to put their television, I have put up a 50x30 map, set in antique style finish. I love to travel and now looking at this on my living room wall it stirs up restlessness to see more of the world. Also with so many family members scattered over the world, I figure I better know where they are!
Wouldn't it be fun to say that you have been to all the continents! (Well maybe not Antarctica, It's too cold. Sorry Elissa :) )But to go to all of the other ones!
North America (check)
South America.
Africa.
Australia (check)
Asia
Europe (check)
That only leaves three. Right. Let me get on that. With being a student and asperations of teaching 2nd graders my pocket book will hold...
But for now I have my map, and all I have to do is look and think.
Who knows, Maybe I'll marry rich! J/K
Don't give up on those aspirations - you have them for a reason! And hey, look, you're half way there. =) I love maps. I subscribed to National Geographic this week and can't wait to receive the "free" World Map that comes along with a year's subscription. Sometimes I can't stand looking at a world map because of the overwhelming restlessness it causes; but most of the time the visual of all those unexplored countries and cultures is a powerful reminder of the vast adventure of life.
