When asked why risk it all to be the first person to climb Everest, George Mallory responded with a mysterious answer that speaks to so many explorers, adventurers, and mountaineers.
“Because it is there.”
There’s something in many of us adventurers, that looks at the magnificent peak as a writer looks at the blank page.
It is just beckoning to be explored, to bear witness to our striving and creativity. A blank canvas to hone our soul.
Journeys too, illogical and unnecessary, kindle a flame in our heart; an ancient, mythical call to adventure.
But why?
Honestly, I’m unsure.
I believe that if someone asks, they will never truly understand.
Personally speaking, adventure provides me with the opportunity to slay my personal dragons, to tap into the attributes that lie in reserve, and to connect to something more real than reality itself.
It’s a psychedelic trip without the exogenous substance.
