Hello Again Thoughtful Travelers!  Welcome to today’s thought for March 1, 2016. 

It’s by Anais Nin, a French journaler and author of erotica.  She lived from 1903-1977.

 “Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back: a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.”

So what are your thoughts on today’s quote? Here’s mine:

“If you’ve read anything about Anais Nin, you know she lived an amazing life.  Her comfort zone was enormous!   When she says, “Throw your dreams into space like a kite”, you know she wasn’t afraid of anything.  She even had two husbands at the same time, one in New York and one in Los Angeles.  The world is a big mystery, and so is your future.  If you want to live it to the fullest, you must at some point abandon the status quo and take a giant leap.  You might be surprised by what awaits you, how well you embrace it, and how much it adds to your life.”

Now…here’s the list of all the sources quoted in March.  I hope you’ll stop by each day to enjoy all the interesting and insightful things they have to say.  And leave a comment.  I’d like to hear your thoughts too.  Thanks, and see you tomorrow!
