O is for Open

When growing up, I always told my son that he needed to be open to new experiences, to try something new, have a new experience and really live the life he had been given.  Of course I don't want him to be open to try those things that could actually bring him harm, and there has to be a balance.  

It is the living of your life that helps form your view of the world, to see the richness of your environment and learn about different cultures, see the whole of the world and not just the house and the surrounding streets that you were born, and the local shops that you visit.  I know people who are afraid to drive outside the area they live limiting themselves to seeing things in new ways.  Today I celebrate being open and adventurous and look forward to the many things I have yet to experience and see of this world.
