Careless Mediocrity by Timothy Poulton

Careless Mediocrity by Timothy Poulton

Life is inherently risky, there is only one significant risk you should avoid at all costs, and that is the risk of doing nothing. An unpredictable future is what makes our lives more exciting. Our experiences along the way, especially those that are the hardest and which involve the most risk to our lives, are the stories we love to share with our friends and loved ones again and again. What usually starts as a typical week for us can sometimes turn into a life-changing adventure. But surviving these adventures provides us with memories we can always look back on with a grin. I cannot attribute the greatest adventure of my life to a single or a few experiences. Instead, I would like to say that my greatest adventure is life itself. I consider that having been given existence is a gift and a grace itself and very early in my life, I adopted an eagerness for every day that I face. I am excited by the idea of not knowing what the future holds. It keeps me on my toes and has built the nature of the person that I am now. This outlook and attitude have made me more appreciative of the toils of every day, with its wonders, joys, heartaches, triumphs, and failures and the whole spectrum of my being. One of my favorite movies and quotes; “Life moves pretty fast. You don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” – Ferris Bueller
