I love the perspective that nature continues on whether we are there or not, trout eating, deer running, etc. I'd say that confirms the notion that even if no one is there to hear it, trees certainly make a sound when they fall haha.
Absolutely! My cousin often tells me "you can't get 'em unless you're out there" and that simple idea has gotten me out of bed on more than one occasion. They may or may not be there, but if you're not out there, it doesn't matter.
Hey Jack, really enjoyed this post. I know some people might be turned off by the hunting vibe, but I think the larger issue here is about the value of hobbies or side passions. Finding something that you are passionate about that's disconnected from the activities you engage in as part of the survival process. I think we all need that time to ourselves, spent in activities where we lose and find ourselves. Being in the outdoors is that place for you, and you're lucky to have found it. Appreciate you sharing more of your story.

100%. It’s different for everyone. It really comes down to having a hobby or place to go to separate yourself from the daily grind.
