I spend almost every night staring at a computer screen. It’s much easier to sit comfortably at home than to plan a trip, pack, and drive 10 hours to an interesting location. At the end of the day though, I’m more content with the latter. There simply is no substitute to be sitting around a campfire, being surrounded by trees and stars, and sharing stories with people who you don’t see often. Did I mention there was no cell service or electricity, or even running water that night? So much of what we do with our electronic devices doesn’t matter in reality. Yes, we can live without all these amenities and conveniences, we don’t need to be in constant communication with the world 24/7, or have to share every moment of our lives. I know that myself still succumbs to this digital world, but I said I can forgo it, at least for one night.

See you in the morning.
