Taking a long walk
I have decided with my significant other and my best friend to go on a long walk. It's something I've been thinking about for a long time. I have seen videos of people, read writings from people, and I wanted to do one for my own sake. It is not going to be crazy long, some people do a multi-week hike (I'd have to work up to that), it will be a day and a half walk. From where I am currently living to my hometown. On Google Maps it says it will take up about 11 hours to walk the entirety of the walk. Though, that is without food breaks, bathroom breaks, and tiredness breaks. I planned it, so we can bunk with a friend of mine towards the end of the first day, which is good. I am very excited about this trip. I have been daydreaming about walking this long. About appreciating everything around me more, more so than a car can let you.
I have been hiking before, but this seems different. Instead of a set mountain path of going up, we're going to be walking backroads, walking paths, and probably paved roads to get to our destination.
Ever since I wrote that 40 minutes of Asphalt. I can't stop thinking about ways to improve my life. About how I should better use my time. To stop watching videos, and go for walks, write stuff, read, take pictures, go to events, all of that. I started making my own deodorant even. That is why I started this blog.
Sometimes I feel like I'm thinking too much. That I should just enjoy what I have. I try to, but some of the things I have I don't want. I don't want to be on my phone/laptop for eight hours a day (work included). I don't want to have the social anxiety about calling on the phone.
I just have to work on it I guess. This walk is a good start towards that.
