While some people are more adventurous than others, most spend the majority of their time and energy in the “everydayness” that comprises most of life. In youth, adventure means setting aside all that is to fully be something and/or somewhere else. As people age adventure becomes, quite frankly, less and less adventurous. Big plans tend to come in the form of vacations or temporary variations from the norm. In short, people become increasingly risk averse.
So What?
Regardless of the plans you may now be making for your future, new possibilities may arise that are completely outside of your planning. Do you know yourself well enough to be able to respond appropriately when they arise? How will you know whether to accept or reject the unexpected adventures life may offer? How does your faith enter into your decision making equation?
