And don’t forget this: Head up to the rimrock, into the rainforest, across the desert, or through the canyon, wherever the waters sing and rocks listen and ancient trees hold wise counsel. Walk down to the shore, get in a small boat, and push off. Paddle around that point and the one beyond. Camp on the bedrock, the beach, the moss. Sleep under the stars. Listen to the whisper of the tides, the chatter of barnacles, the gossip of geese. Drink the rain. Eat garden carrots. Laugh and sing with a friend. Tell stories. Always stories. Read a book, and another, and another. Converse with sea otters, harbor seals, and sandhill cranes. They will never fail you.
