It really is about the road

Even when I am working towards a target, I always know that once I am close to it I will need to find another target in the horizon to point myself towards it.


It is not that I am competitive, if you know me in any way you do not even need me to explain that to you.


It is not that I get tired along the way and do not reach the goals I set to myself - it is true that if I realize my goal is the wrong one I will let it go, but most times I will meet the challenges I set to myself.


The fact is that I do that because what interests me above anything else is the act of moving and doing and not the act of arriving or achieving.


My goal is to feel I am progressing, and not to fill my drawers with trophies of achievements.


I guess that's why I like pictures more than trophies, because a pictures can be taken along the way and not only once you get to your desired destination.
