  • I took the canoe out to a small island and camped there for the night. It was not without (drone) drama and the wind made me worried. Canoeing season has started!

    "If we can't connect with nature we can't connect with ourselves. "That was an amazing statement. I hope more people can realize the beauty of nature, some people i know dont want anything to do with it, too dirty, etc. from where they get it i'm not sure, probably just too many conveniences in their life, and something they didnt experience much as a kid maybe

    I love what you said at the end of the video. Living in boxes looking at boxes is getting to me lately. In fact I reached the point where I can't stand it anymore. I keep pushing myself to go in to the office.. but it's getting harder and harder to do it every morning - that push to do something I really don't want to - but must in order to get money. Without the money - you can't really survive... I'm not going to be able to grow my own food, make my own clothes and be entirely self-sufficient because I've been raised in this consumer society and I'm completely unprepared for any other type of living. I do camp out in the woods some times and walk in the countryside.... but it's only for small amounts of time. Also employers are ramping up the pressure constantly. Many of my friends and colleagues are reaching breaking point... some of them have anxiety attacks, some of them had to stop working due to depression. It's got worse recently.... I mean during the 90's and 2000's it wasn't like this... people seemed happier - even when they were working. Work life became too intensified and people getting poorer - bosses getting richer and I feel that soon the people won't be able to take it anymore. They will refuse to do it. But what comes after? I don't know.

      Once people resort to shoplifting to survive, they'll end up getting housed, clothed and fed for free. Eventually you get kicked out, but they'll take you back to the hotel once you go back to survival mode.

    This brings back wonderful memories. Our Aunt and Uncle would take 4kids (my sibs, cousin and I) camping on small island in Georgian Bay Ontario Canada. We would stay for a week and it was such a wonderful adventure. No other people, no noise, no TV, radio. We swam, read, talked and played games together. We were so very fortunate. ❤

    I’ve eliminated as many boxes as I can in my life. I usually only spend a few minutes a day looking at a screen. I am also lucky enough to only work about three days a week, so it gives me time to get out and enjoy nature while I still can. When I am too old to get out there, I don’t want to regret the things I did not do.
