I often think about the pains and expense people take to go offline and be in nature for short spells--a remote cabin, camping, etc.--when they could transform their daily lives to have that peace and nature by working, striving, and acquiring less.

Comparatively, as a lifetime runner, I can disappear into the ether and run for hours with barely anything with me. Now I am expanding the art to kayaking. I have miles upon miles of water access and so I'll go a bit further a piece at a time. Again with barely anything with me. Eventually the hope is to be able to dissappear into to the waterways, oddly and curiously studying birds and other living things. No phone. Basically just bring or know where to get water. One can work a lot of things out without knowing they are working a lot of things out. Who figures at 28 years old that when they are 61 they want to get good at being able to do nothing?

But I got to have the watch because this produces numbers which mean nothing, but I've become accustomed to looking at them for some unknown solace.
