The reason we want to go on and on is that we live in an impoverished present.

Sometimes the roads we take are clear, but that doesn't mean that they are without risk. There can be danger on either side of the road or on the road ahead or coming up from behind us. Is that a reason to stay home and never venture out and take risks?

Yes. It is one reason. 

Another reason is wasps.
