I think for me more and more as life keeps speeding up and I am constantly being deluged by the hustle and bustle , noise pollution, substitution of real life adventures by virtual reality electronic substitution ( ugh ) I need the peace, quiet, and the sheer tranquility of the outdoors. Turn off the phones, the tv, put down the I pads the lap tops and such and get on with smelling the pines, listening to a softly rolling stream or the lapping of the water on the side of the boat, watching the Bald Eagle fish while I do the same and just get on with some healing of the soul provided by Mother Nature. Cathcing some fish is merely an added bonus . If I am lucky enough to catch the fish and be able to prepare him over a small campfire then I feel complete and give thanks that it is still able to be done .
