The common belief is that if you shoot for the curve everything else is extra. Instead we need to be teaching our kids to shoot for the moon and see just how far you can get. There is no limit to how far someone with a great spirit and a lot of inspiration can go. This is what we need to teach in school :) I agree, society as a whole sets the bar too low.

When we are on an adventure we expect and fully experience all those things you mentioned plus we welcome the unknown and unexpected aspects as well.

However, I think a refinement of it is that there are a lot of destinations along the way -- rest stops, landmarks, scenic views, etc. -- and that they should be enjoyed and appreciated as well. How miserable is a long road trip in which you spend most of your time driving? Some people get so caught up in the journey that they forget to stop and smell the proverbial roses. Yes, life is a journey, but if you don't take the time to enjoy the little moments along the way -- of accomplishment, joy, bliss, peace, even sorrow -- what's the journey really for?

Over the years, I've slowly changed the way I see myself and it has drastically changed the way I experience this journey called life. As you said, I think the word adventure is an even better descriptor- it reflects the twists and turns, ups and downs, plans and surprises, pains and pleasures that keep me on my toes.
