a moment that lead to a thought

Our whole life we walk on side walks (side walk being a path layed out for us, a group of steps to be completed. For example School > Highschool > Post ed > get a job and get married > die) Why do we spend our whole lives walking on the side walk? I honestly said that outloud last night as I was thinking to myself. I've never taken any risks or anything such as that, until like now, and even the ones I am taking now are so safe its not even funny lol.
The point is I think we as young people need to walk on the road a little more (road being a set of interconnected paths that seem never ending) Experience something new, grow up, love and learn from love. Feel, quit being numb to thing emotion in life, feel even if it is hurt. Learn from hurt. Take chances, have faith, Change for the better, Walk on the road.

I had that thought as I looked up at the stars last night, walking in the middle of a road.
Literally in the middle of a road. Have you ever had like a moment? One that makes you think, that sticks with you, that taught you something new? Stretched you? I had one last night, and that thought was part of it. Its all part of growning up.
