What was something you did for the first time recently? What is something new you hope to try? Why haven't you done it yet?
New experiences help keep life fresh and interesting. Our brains release neurotransmitters, chemicals in the brain, responsible for feelings such as satisfaction, excitement, and happiness when we experience novel situations. These new experiences help us grow and learn and remind us that life has so much to offer us if we are willing to venture outside of our comfort zone of the familiar.

It is during the little things in day to day life that we can find more joy than we previously imagined. We often overlook all that our lives have to offer us.
Describe a small, everyday thing that you enjoy with a special person in your life. “Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey.”
