Inspiration and Wilderness
I was up north alone this weekend. Nothing is more calming and tranquil than canoeing a lake in the early morning hours. There is great power in having a time of reflection in such a beautiful place. It is one way I get inspired. I am well served to remember what gives me inspiration and energy.
Although I work out quite a bit and like to think I am in shape, carrying a canoe for 1/2 a kilometer over rough terrain was still tough. The moral is that our bodies adapt to what we do all the time and atrophy in the areas we do not use. I need to make sure I am more fully rounded. It think this applies not only to exercise but to life in general.
And on the way back to civilization, I stopped by the cottage of friends. Friends also give me inspiration and energy.
