Wandering

I caught myself wondering what it would be like to let go of everything, pack a small bag with some essentials, some clothing, a way to cook, and just go wander for a year, two, three...

Just lose yourself in the now, and become something that happens in the sidelines, outside the stress of modern life. Much like Christopher McCandless did (and recounted wonderfully by John Krakauer in Into The Wild), leave the mounting pile of obligations, expectations, and noise behind, and seek peace.

Ah... The thought of just not “having to deal” with stuff is so enticing, so luring, so perfect...

I don’t know. I often get caught in these thoughts after truly letting my mind wander.
