[thehopefulquotes]

English Proverb

[thehopefulquotes]

Take wrong turns. Talk to strangers. Open unmarked doors. And if you see a group of people in a field, go find out what they are doing. Do things without always knowing how they’ll turn out. You’re curious and smart and bored, and all you see is the choice between working hard and slacking off. There are so many adventures that you miss because you’re waiting to think of a plan. To find them, look for tiny interesting choices. And remember that you are always making up the future as you go.

Randall Munroe, xkcd: volume 0

And through their eyes, you start to see yourself the same way. As someone who matters. As someone who can make a difference in this world.
