Down or Hopeless?

Do me a favor and go to maps.google.com, and zoom out until you can see the whole map then pick up the little orange man in the right corner and set him down anywhere in the world 
you have the ability to get a glimpse into someone else’s entire world.
the neighborhood whose streets they ran down when they were children. the corner store that their best friend’s dad owns. the path their grandmother took them for walks through. the coffee shop they go when they need to focus.everything. think about how before this moment, you had no idea that the place you landed even existed. but it does. 
and there is an entire planet’s worth of places just like it that you still have yet to know. a planet’s worth of narrow cafe-filled alleyways and flower-speckled country sides and everything in between. 
sometimes it can be hard to remember that there is anything outside of your current situation. but I promise, you still have the entire world waiting for you.
