Wanderlust
I get antsy when I stay in one place for any amount of time.
You only get one life, so I want to see and share as many experiences in the time that I have.
I recently did 23&Me to find out what my health predispositions looked like, and I’m looking forward to a high likelihood of memory loss and issues related to dementia. It was a weird thing when you see it on paper, but I wanted it to empower my choices instead of being a victim to news that will likely not change. I’ve made changes to the things I can change, namely my diet and lifestyle to emphasize leafy greens and brain exercise.
One of the things I have learned throughout all of this knowledge, is that your brain responds highly to video, even moreso than photos or audio individually. Since I’m going to eventually lose my memory, I’ve wanted to start capturing the stories inside those memories, so they could still be shared.
Don’t wait for life to happen to you. Go make life happen.
