I'll be honest, this post is going to be short and fairly silly. I was watching the Amazing Race today and for one of their challenges in Copenhagen they had to memorize a short verse on the statue of Hans Christian Anderson and then perform it. As soon as I read what it said I knew I just HAD to do something with it! So why not blog about it?! I did say I was going to post about poetry etc...so I'm going to put it up here for everyone to enjoy. Everytime I say it in my head it gives me that weird fluttery feeling in my chest! So without futher ado, here is the verse:
To move, to breathe, to fly, to float
To gain all while you give
To roam the roads of lands remote:
To travel is to live.
-Hans Christian Anderson
I just find it so powerful! I think maybe because I'm obsessed with travelling and want to do so much of it, even though I can't just yet. Too many other bills and things to do at the moment but as soon as I'm done school I'm jetting off on an adventure of some kind and this verse makes me want to go all the more!! Alrighty, well that was it really, I just really wanted to share that.
Goodnight!
Holly
