12 Days Til Nomadic Lifestyle: Deeper Release

Even a pickup truck is a “small” container for the things I want to keep. Maybe I’m not 100% committed to this Hiking Lifestyle! That’s true, I admit. And to clarify, I’m calling what I’m creating “nomadic” which means that I can easily move. At this moment, there are still things I want to keep …

Fifteen days sounds infinitely longer than fourteen! There’s something about saying “just two weeks more” that makes the unfinished list look endless and the unsorted stuff look mountainous!

Day 25: Hello and goodbye to Deep and Old Pain

Wow! Until I actually experience something, it’s just a theory!

Can you relate? Here’s how it happened for me early …

Day 26: Letting Go of My Favorite Things
