“Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life…”
There are only three things that I ever say that start with "never"...
Never Look Back... Never Give Up... Never Say Never
The past couple of years have taken me on an amazing journey that I have been fortunate enough to share with some incredible people both at home and abroad. These past couple of years have taken me over 4 different continents, from the highest summits and remote villages, to the densest jungles and forests.
To share in a journey that has shaped me on such a personal level, I have felt that I have indeed lived a charmed life. I never came from a privileged background and I always felt that it was my crutch, something I could lean on if times got tough. Yet the life I lead is far from disadvantaged, and it has been humbling to see the stark contrast of poverty with happiness and wealth with misery. This harsh reality has given me ambition and motivation to aim higher and impact greater. To learn more, experience more and above all, love more.
In a world where people preach hate and intolerance, I think it’s our role as the new generation to change that. To make this world a better place, to build communities, to build schools, to build hospitals. To use our skills and change our own worlds and the world of those who could never hope to do so in their own lifetime. To give up our own wealth and fortunes and share them amongst others who would share their last meals with you. It has been an incredible journey and I am inspired by my friends and family everyday. Thanks for being a part of it.
