Earth’s vastness is a treasure trove
Of hidden places, of unexplored lands.
The promise of discovery has always been
The greatest prize that life can hold.
The thrill of finding something new —
That’s what keeps us going, what brings us joy.
What better way to live than with eyes wide open —
To take in all that life has to offer, and be grateful.
Some of our most important discoveries
are made by accident.
