Outward Bound
“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”
I’d heard this quote often in my time as graphic designer at Outward Bound, but I fully felt it’s meaning on this day, the last time we saw our house in Denver, as we drove away to start a new life. Although excited for all the open-ended possibility of our future, I was leaving my lifelong home and not headed to any known address. It was scary. Thrilling. Necessary. A perfect reflection of the spring weather - gloomy and uncertain in the moment - but our journey would be the refreshing, cleansing rain we needed.
