My family has this Mother's Day tradition where about 15-20 of us get together, drive out to the country, and go four wheeler riding for hours and hours. Normally, we end up swimming in a creek and getting completely muddy.
Now when I tell people about this, they normally laugh, mainly because they can't picture me on a four wheeler plowing through mud puddles. It's true, that's not my natural environment. If it hadn't been a family tradition, I probably never would have taken the chance to do it, but because I did, I love it. This day is one of the highlights of my year since we started doing it.
I'm big on doing things for the experience. Normally if you ask me to do something or go somewhere, I will say yes. God has given us this life to take advantage of every single moment and do as many things as we possibly can in the short time we are here on earth. When you break out of your normal every-day routine and experience something new, that's when you are really taking advantage of all life has to offer. So, go do something new. Climb a tree, sleep in a hammock, paint a picture, do something crazy!
Challenge yourself to do something new every day. Don't ever give yourself to chance to look back and say "I wish I would have done that." Go out and make a new life experience happen.
