"I remember when..."
Most of us can remember when things were seemingly different; possibly more gentle and predictable. But socially we have changed and that change is significant. When I look around me and observe our behaviours it becomes more frightening. It's not always fun being an adult any more than an adolescent growing up.
There is a need for me to escape on occasion to recharge my battery - and that's the exact reason I get out when I can and embrace the outdoor
life. When I can't get out I think about it, read about it, and view the videos and pictures. As corny as it sounds, it's the tonic that calms me down and enables me to keep my feet on the ground so to speak. It's not a panacea for the difficulties I face but it sure helps a lot. There is nothing more therapeutic for me than to sit around a campfire with trusted friends, sipping down a coffee, listening to the sounds of dusk, and viewing a calm lake with a gorgeous sunset as a backdrop.
It's good for what ails you!
