“Yeah, someone’s gotta go back to look for that old couple,” Nick said. I looked up from my crackers and peanut butter (the last remnants of the MRE I’d just devoured) and met Nick’s eyes across the huge, metal campsite table.

Robbie, this was so beautiful. Definitely not too much rambling. You have such an incredible perspective and a way of seeing beauty everywhere. It's truly such a gift. I always walk away from your articles wanting to continue on this path of learning to thrive instead of just survive, and wanting to enjoy every single moment I have on this earth, those moments that are the greatest gift and blessing of all. So thank you for that!
Also, absolutely loved the LOTR reference at the beginning. 😂
First off, I'm so happy you got the LOTR easter egg! Secondly, as always thank you so much for actually reading the whole thing. As for my so-called gift of seeing beauty everywhere, I give the credit there to my parents, as well as the variety of trips I've been on that have shifted my perspective hugely—nothing intrinsic to myself. You are the best!

This was so good, thanks for sharing!
Thank you Dominique, means so much to me that you took the time to read this! And glad we're in agreement about where real happiness comes from.
