Qualntity!! (To see or to be)
What is more important, Quality or Quantity? This is a difficult question to answer. Seeing as how we have only one life to live, is it more important to see as much of this beautiful planet as possible or should we cherish one special corner and let others enjoy theirs? Until now, I have always ascribed to the former. I believe that life is to be lived to its fullest and that only by traveling to foreign lands and exposing ourselves to its treasures, can we grow and evolve as humans. I have often used the argument that as Americans we must use our freedom (passports) to travel for all who would like to, but are restricted from, due to their inability to obtain even travel visas. Alas, lets not forget about them altogether, on our journeys, but instead try to sort out the forces that are restricting their freedom in the first place. Only by placing ourselves in their shoes, will we be able or willing to solve their dilemma. Lets be careful though, not to make, their struggle, ours. We must not give up our freedom to help them find theirs. BALANCE my friend BALANCE.
