River rafting - Mari going back to nature - They can fuck themselves, I am set

You know when you kinda don't want to do something, for no other reason but "waaa - I'm lazy", or "i just don't know about this"... but then you take a leap and its just really worth it?

I didn't until this rafting trip.

It was an awesome rafting trip. I went to sleep at 3:30, woke up at 5:30. It was hot. The water was cold. We were drunk. Rafting was fun, a bit dangerous (more a question of perspective really - if you made it through the rapid "its not so hard - hahaha"; if your boat turned "Holy shit!") . I missed Joe. The food was ok, and then we drank some more and played games by the fire. Then you wake up and to raft and get ready all over again.

But more than anything, somewhere between being afraid of rafting, concentrating on the tide, and looking at stars at night, something came back to me. Something I had found a long time ago and lost: we are a minuscule, harmonic part of something bigger, more important than ourselves. There so much more going on around us, that our problems are really just what we choose to concentrate on.

Then coming back Fabi said it best "They can fuck themselves - I am set"
My problems, and disappoints are too small comparing to what I am set on doing.
So I say: lets think Macro and be set.
