I like it. Maybe this will keep me going this winter. I failed last winter, but got going again in the spring.

Yes! Great insight. Last year I was backpacking in the White Cloud Mountains when the weather turned bad, rain, freezing rain and snow. I had a couple of choices, stay in my tent and wait it out, or head back to the trailhead about 32 mi away, not to mention a lot a climbing and descending. I thought what the hell let’s see if I can do it. It was stupid and dangerous. I did it. I’m glad I did. It is amazing what you can do if you try… and as you suggest, you’re curious.

As a curious person, I think this article really helped me understand why I have so much grit when it comes to some things. I appreciate that

I just wrote in Notes today: Keep questioning. These two words are loving; they open worlds. It was also a huge topic (being curious, not certain) in my new Bare HEARTS Q&A with Erin Miller.
