Hello Again Thoughtful Travelers!  Welcome to today’s thought for February 28, 2016. 

It’s by Saint Augustin of Hippo, the North African bishop and Christian theologian who is also the patron saint of breweries.  He lived from 354-430.

“Go forth on your path, as it exists only through your walking.”

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

“The truth here is that nothing happens, until you make it happen.  This is a call to action, meant to get you moving in the first place, to commit yourself to taking that trip that you’ve been thinking about for a long time. Until you actually do it, you’re just dreaming.  And, it’s also meant to keep you active, rather than passive, as you pursue your daily travel activities.  It’s up to you to get the most out of your travels.  Be bold and adventurous.  Make your dream trip come true, in every possible way.”
Now…here’s the list of all the sources quoted in February.  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!
