Ryan McClelland

If you've learned nothing else, you've probably learned that life is a journey. As far as I can tell, it's never been about us or the routes we choose or where we end up on this journey. Life is what we make of it, and what's matters most is something we get to decide. Perhaps I'm too young or too old to figure it out, but I'm not sure what matters most to me yet. I'm not sure where I want to travel, what I want to do, or how I want to get there. But along the way I'm going to try my best to be open minded and curious.I'm always learning and always up to something, but at the end of the day I'm only a storyteller. I can't help it. We're all telling ourselves a story. After all, "Life is a book and there are a thousand pages I have not yet read."
