A Lesson from COVID-19

Amid COVID-19 we are constantly finding small silver linings that teach us important lessons. Today’s lesson: Outdoor enthusiasts are being asked to please not push your limits outside, the healthcare system can not handle injuries right now. Instead, outdoorsy folks are asked to dial back their intensity. What we’ve found while doing this we are falling back in love with the FUN of being outside, feeling gratitude for the spaces we explore and savoring the moments by taking our time. This is so special because too often we push our limits constantly to feel more fulfilled, while important, it doesn’t create many opportunities to sit back and smell the roses, something that is equally as important for many of us. Get out and smell the roses, frolick in the forests, and HAVE FUN!
