"Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when we look back everything is different."

You measure your life by the milestones. When your a kid these come quickly. First words, first steps, first day of school, first friend, first crush, and on and on. So many things happening all of the time. As we get older the time between these milestones grows. You work the same job, see the same people, have the same routines. The space between those milestones blurs together and it all feels the same. It goes by slowly, but when you look back it's happened all at once, where did the time go?

It's important to fill as much of that space between as we can. Be adventurous and try everything, hit new milestones.
