The High Road
We all have choices in life. I feel lucky that most of my choices are between 2 ‘good’ options. For example do I take the low road or the high road? Should I stay or should I go? Given those options – I usually take the high road, and I usually go. Right now I’m on a train down to Oxford at the start of my journey along the Aleutian island chain and the Alaskan peninsula. It promises to be as big and bold an adventure as any I’ve undertaken. I thrive on these wild, unpredictable voyages of discovery where I have to rely on my wits and a few carefully chosen possessions to safely travel through a magical landscape. I even enjoy the hardships – at least when I relive them ‘afterwards’. These experiences where I have to work hard for my comfort, food and propulsion definitely make me happier, calmer, nicer.
