freedom

Life is good when you have freedom. Awoke this morning and nothing to do, nowhere I had to be, nobody expecting me to do anything for them, complete freedom. free from the wants or needs of others, free from constraints of the American dream, free from worrying about what others think of me. most of the pressures that people feel are actually self imposed, they think the world is pushing them, controlling them but they allow the outside world to influences their actions. I have discovered that it is not as difficult as i thought it would be to walk away from society and just do the things I want to really do. The things I thought were necessary turned out to not be very important to me at all. I don't miss TV I don't miss living in a house, etc etc etc, I have never been more at peace than I am right now.  So what do I want to do today, Still have some modifications  to make to my kayak outrigger, earlier this year I took the kayak to the gulf and paddled around.

paddling in the Gulf of Mexico

And i had trouble keeping straight, the wind pushing me around and the fact that it was very unstable. so i have built an outrigger for my kayak. Also decided that with the wind I would build a sail. Am almost finished and will take it to the lake for a test run, still have to make some directional stabilizers (fins) for the outriggers and then it will be finished. Only have about three weeks before I set out on my next adventure, the time frame is dictated by the weather, I don't like the cold weather and its starting to get chilly at night.
