Departing Siberia – Going Alone
Failure is always enlightening… I guess I should have known I wasn’t much of a match for the desert cold—especially if I don’t even bother to wear pants.
This particular adventure didn’t take much out of me…which is a disappointment…as I always prefer to return from the wild less than I was when I came. I didn’t go far enough this time…didn’t get clear of the relative safety of the ghost town called Siberia…where even the ruins of humanity offer some comfort and protection. You need to get really clear of that stuff—even the dead stuff that can only live in a ghost town—before the Indifference can be clearly seen. Next time I’ll do better. I won’t run so easily from the cold—or the isolation—or the quiet—or the deep emptiness of nature…which fact is what really made me shiver and leave.
My name is Kurt Bell and I am delighted that you have taken some time to share a little of The Good Life with me. I’m available on social media at the links below and can be reached via email at softypapa@gmail.com
My book is available here:
Going Alone is an independent approach to living, uncovering what is real, and making peace with the facts of what is true no matter how the truth makes us feel. I upload at least one video a week for this series on my YouTube channel.
The Good Life is a formulated plan of objectives and principals designed to help us live a more virtuous life in accord with sound reasoning. I upload at least one video a month for this series.
