"We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time." -T.S. Eliot

This quote popped up while I was browsing Literary Jukebox by brainpickings.org. It struck a chord with me in that I'm currently on a somewhat desperate quest for adventure--I need to get out of the monotonous life through which I've been moseying for the last decade. Until I can physically remove myself from my current surroundings and lifestyle, I have to get off the couch/out of the library/out of bed (my three former hot spots) and explore. I'm being present. Through living in the present, I'm learning that what I have around me is more profound than I'd previously known. So long as one appreciates presence, he or she can find adventure in nothing (or "anything", if you prefer).
