The spirit of adventure settles over us slowly sometimes. In the beginning when those old winds of change blow, we turn our backs, fight, and resist. We just want things to stay the same. Gradually we let go of the need to control. We allow things to change and us to change with them. We accept the change.
~~~
Then we round the corner and find a wonderful lesson there, and then another, and another. Soon we find ourselves looking forward to taking the next step, anxious to see what lies in front of us today. Where will my path lead? Who will I meet? What will I learn? What wonderful lesson is taking place right now?
~~~
The steps that you have been taking have been slowly leading you down a path with more wonder and goodness at every turn of the road. You learned to tolerate change. Now learn to embrace it.
~~~
Adventure isn't something you do. The adventure is your life. Recognize how sweet it is. Let those winds of change blow.

That title says it all for me. You have to just go for it sometimes.
