Can you believe I actually don’t enjoy your typical city walk?
But get me out into nature on a trail and I’m a totally different person. Some would even say a maniac, as I’m instantaneously giddy and jumping off every rock I can find.
An overwhelming sense of calm consumes my entire body and I instantly feel at peace. There is just something about a pure, undulated natural environment that recalibrates my core. It is very therapeutic.
I always am up for a difficult challenge. They are are worth doing even through the inevitable huffing and puffing just to push over that next ledge or fork in the path.
And best taken one at a time. Don’t jump ahead. Just stay in the moment.
No matter how much research you do prior, there are more times than not, surprises along the journey. They can be wonderful or terrible, but should not be avoided. They are the spice of adventure and might just be creative fuel to light up the next opportunity.
Is it life or just another trail to conquer?
Your call….. but I bet both will be equally rewarding to just keep going and forge your own path.
