Firsthand

Engage using your mind. Engage using your presence, with all you are.

Your life is not some flat, detached, concept. It is a dynamic, direct experience.

Go beyond merely wondering what various places and people and events would be like. Get yourself involved in them, with them, around them, and discover firsthand.

Trek through the living reality as it stimulates all your senses. Strengthen your skills and broaden your perspective by immersing yourself in things you never could have expected.

Learn much more than you could ever know from mere speculation. Feel the depth and uniqueness of your existence as you interact with what you can never fully understand.

You’ll get the most out of whatever you put the most of yourself into. Engage yourself fully with the richness that’s possible in every moment.

— Ralph Marston
