Real Adventure
When depicted in movies, adventures feature an assortment of fantastic action sequences that would immediately kill the protagonist if ever attempted in real life. Movies do this because physical action can be photographed by a camera, but it's bullshit, like this staged photo of me at a WWII museum. Real adventures are psychological journeys better represented by written stories, but even these are hampered by privacy concerns, skepticism, memory, etc. They are a series of choices, lessons and characters you sleep with on your path to a deeper understanding of yourself. So here are some I'm ready to share.
