Do. The. Darn. Thing.
Matt and I have been married for 25 years. We were babies when we got married. I’m proud of us and the life we’ve created, but that doesn’t mean it’s constant sunshine and roses. But 25 years is worth celebrating.
We’ve just spent the last 18 days traveling through the UK and British Isles. We had A LOT of conversations with travelers - the majority of our fellow cruisers being a generation (or 2) ahead of us. So many stories of love, loss, money saved, spent, mistakes, priorities, advice….
The older and wiser they were, the more intense their encouragement was.
DO THE TRIP.
See the world.
SPEND TIME WITH THE ONE YOU LOVE WHILE YOU CAN.
It wasn’t meant to be depressing or scary. It was inspiring. Go with your spouse, your friends, your kids, your self! But GO.
