For example, if you are allergic to shellfish, do not eat crab, but if you are afraid to try snails just because someone else told you they were gross, then you are missing out on an opportunity to form your own opinion.
Life is about perception and how you see this world. We are all lucky enough to see the world from our own unique perspectives. Do not let someone else tell you how to see the world; go experience it for yourself. One of the most important lessons I have learned from traveling across different countries is that every culture is different. Gaining a new perspective on life means learning from the people and things around us. Try something new every day, whether that be a food, a new book, or a new word from a different language. Keep your mind open and active.
