What is your profession!
Date walked: 18/10/2020
I feel like everyone I meet on the hills is a tourist, a one day fair weather day hiker with a family and a mortgage who watches television.
Civilians, who will be home by tea time. People without voice or limb. A people who use the mountains as a weekend retreat, a place to escape the BS they have created for themselves.
I recall a mountaineer who said he wanted to climb the Munro's because he wanted better things to do... I say, climbing the mountains is THAT better thing. Because nothing else you do will be better, even if others tell you otherwise. The ordinary world of civilization is a figment, an illusion... Only the mountains and your hardship to attain them holds any significance. Everybody and everything else is an illusion.
Do not be distracted by such things as family and friends.
Hold on to your believe and have faith in your vision.
And don't be afraid to fail. 👍
