What Long-Distance Hiking Reveals About You

 

It's been too long friends.

No way to get back to writing, like simply writing / posting. 

What happens when you go hiking? What happens when you hike something like the Colorado Trail or Appalachian Trail?

For some, they find out who they really are. And maybe that's who they used to be before they started. And honestly, I think that's pretty great.

It's a loaded term, but coming full circle is a beautiful thing. No huge epiphany that you've been doing it wrong this whole time. Quite the opposite. You realize you enjoy sushi, a good book in a comfy chair with the perfect lamp turned down low. Caring for your tiny garden.

I think putting ourselves in type 2 fun situations (especially without a device) is one of the only ways to truly appreciate all the tiny luxuries we take for granted every day. AND we realize we love those tiny luxuries!

Maybe that's why we go out for long walks - to realize a flushing toilet is a true miracle. 

And that we're enough just as we are. 

That seems good to me.
