Tomorrow I’m taking a digital sabbath. I’m heading out to a mountain range about an hour from where I live to do some hiking and an overnight camp.
I’m going by myself and am hoping to use this time as a chance for self reflection and to create some inner peace.
Today I’m out in nature and I’ve realised a couple of things.
- I’d forgotten how hard hiking can be, particularly when you’re traipsing up what seems to be an endless f4cking mountain and
- I’d forgotten just how quickly blisters can turn a determined hiker into a ‘grin and bear it, grit your teeth, f4ck my foot hurts... actually it’s not that bad let’s take a looks...f4ck me that’s actually pretty bad limping, hang your head in defeat’ hiker.
Gee f4cking wizz my legs are sore.
