Feeling like Walter Mitty

Sometimes, in the middle of an ordinary day—while reading emails or sitting in a meeting—I find my mind drifting far away. One second I’m focused on work, the next I’m trekking through mountain trails, skating down an empty road, or diving into some unknown adventure.

It’s not about running away. It’s more like my imagination reminding me there’s more to life than routines and deadlines. Even though I’ve had my fair share of real journeys and tough projects, there's still a part of me that craves the unexpected.

That part pushes me to stay curious, to take risks, and to keep seeking things that feel real and alive.

I’ve come to appreciate these little mental detours. They’re not distractions—they’re gentle nudges toward a fuller version of myself.

And who knows—maybe the next time I drift off, it’ll be the start of something new.
