A Quickie

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to just strap a backpack on with food and water, no cell phone or any kind of way to contact anyone? To be able to just walk in the mountains...I'm not talking about for a few hours, I mean for months. Just to let go and not look back. How freeing would that be? How liberating would you feel, just to walk away? I don't mean to walk away from problems (cause no matter where you go, they're still there!), but just to clear your head, to live like an undomesticated animal without any worries except to find food and water for survival.

Honestly, anyone who can truly rid themselves of all materialism and all of society's barriers and obligations, has reached inner peace. And obviously we know of philosophies that encourage this.

I wholeheartedly believe that once a person can live without worrying about money and bills, a person can truly focus on one's self. This is essentially how life is meant to be lived.

It's too bad it can't be that easy because once you return to "civilized" (notice the quotes, ha ha) life, you return to all of those obligations...but have you ever felt like you should just go off and do it anyway?
