Great quote by Cecil Beaton thank you! A play-safer? Too many of us are this and afraid to move out of our comfort zone ... and are unaware of the opportunity of the road less taken.

Thanks. I love the quote too. Being uncomfortable sometimes helps us change and move forward, and I am inspired by others who do this too. The bravery and courage of others helps me believe that I too can give it a go.
DeleteThis has to be written for me. We took the plunge and went into business with a Chief on the Island of Tanna in Vanuatu in the running of a small resort. This gave me the makings of a memoir but have also had various lives since then. Something you can do if you don't have children. I'd be a little wary if I did.
ReplyDeleteThat does give you the makings of a memoir - I would love to know more about that! Thanks for stopping by too - look forward to chatting more in the future. :-)

ReplyDeleteMoving out of one's comfort zone takes some courage. When I took the road less taken it was to enlist in the Peace Corps and teach English at a university in Slovakia at the age of 67. It was not easy to leave my country, family, friends, home, culture, and language, but the rewards were worth it all. I had an adventure and cultural
exchange that I have never regretted for an instant. Stepping into the unknown offers unknown gifts.
Wow! That does take courage. Inspiring! Who knows what will happen but amazing things happen if we step out into the unknown from time to time. Wonderful story, and thanks for stopping by. :-)
DeleteI agree. Anything against the play-it-safe mentality eventually succeeds. It takes a while and many tries, but more times than not, the abstract and daring and courageous goes a long way. Thank for such a great quote.

You are most welcome. Happy you stopped by, and glad you share my faith that eventually we will succeed - if we try, against the 'play it safe', and not to give up.
