the desire for my life.

Hello there.  The reason I chose the pen name of hobbit is because I have this strange desire for my life.  All I want to do is something.  Though I sit and watch netflix a lot and just do pointless stuff that will almost never influence my life, I have this aching feeling inside me that I could be doing so much more.  This sensation, I feel, has come from the many places I have been.  It all started back when I was about five and me and my family went on a vacation back east to Nauvoo.  This was when they were having the open house for the LDS Nauvoo temple and we went inside to visit.  I remember going in and seeing walking to a spiral staircase that my dad carried me up.  I remember looking up at the ceiling and feeling as though it would never stop spinning.  That if it wanted to, it could go on forever.  Well that's what I want to do.  I want to spin forever; wherever I want.  So far, I've been doing a pretty good job at fulfilling that goal.  Ever since the day I was born I have actually been living my life rather than sitting back and watching myself live it which is what a lot of people do I feel like.  It's sad.  I wish that people could experience the things that I experience in their own way.  I honestly feel that if you find a way to live every experience the way you want to, you won't have any regrets.  I am almost eighteen now and I can honestly say that I don't have any regrets.  Every mistake I made whether it was big or small has served me in some purpose that I am overly greatful for.  Every accomplishment that I have made, I know that I've earned it.  I am truly happy.  I live every day of my life with a clear image that what ever happens to me today isn't going to matter tomorrow.  Tomorrow is a whole new set of problems and accomplishments that are going to influence my life exactly the way it was meant to.  I love that I manage my life.  I love that I can do whatever I want everyday.  No matter my problems or my struggles I can still go bungy jumping tomorrow.  I can still read an entire book.  I can still get a new job.  I can do whatever I want to and I can do it in my own way!  I have lived a real solid adventure everyday in my life.  I have been to  17 states but I've only lived in one of them.  Some of my favorites are Hawaii, New York, Florida, Idaho, Ohio and Washington DC.  I have seen three Broadway plays in Broadway.  I have been on four cruises.  The destinations for the first cruise were Cozumel, Belize, Mexico, and Hondurus.  My second was a dance cruise and I went with friends to San Diego, Mexico, and Catalina.  Third was Camen Islands, Mexico, Jamaica, and Haiti.  Then my last cruise was my favorite because we flew to Denmark and stayed five days there and then got on the ship and headed for Norway.  We stopped off at Geranger, Christensand, Tromso, Aulesund, and the North Cape.  It is stunning.  I have appreciated the beauty of every moment of my life.  I have had both a cat and a dog and hope to one day have horses, a teacup pig, a milking cow, a rabbit, a bird, and a small dog.  I have experienced the Trax and the Subway.  I have been camping more times than I can count.  I have learned to drive an ATV though I don't like it; i would much rather be a passenger.  I have recieved my drivers license.  I have been in a car accident.  I could go on and on about my life and the places I've been but basically I want you to know that I love adventure and my life isn't even close to being over in the sense that I'm not ready to watch my life fly by me.  I want to run with it and experience it.  My passion for adventure is travelling.  What's yours?
Sincerly,
Hobbit, saying live your life.
