The World is Your Playground! 

Just a few thoughts as I wrap up an incredible day exploring one of America’s greatest wonders…. The Grand Canyon!

Wow, my heart is just so full right now and my body is the best kind of tired… it’s been soooooo used today!

I wholly believe that the world is meant to be our playground. Forget all the amazing things humans have built and go out and look at nature. The world as it was before our species intervened. Nature is our playground. Anyone who has even gone on an hour long hike can probably tell you that they felt revitalized. We are meant to climb trees, stumble over stones, swing on branches and interact with the world around us.
What’s even cooler is how much opportunity there is to do it! You can go out and play right now and feed your body and soul. You can get out there and interact with all kinds of animals, plants, natural structures and etc. it’s absolutely incredible! 

We, as a species, were never meant to sit behind desks for 8 hours a day. We are built to explore. We are built for adventure. We are built for the natural world that we’re born into.

I’m not trying to diminish all the amazing things humans have accomplished… but anything I’ve ever seen in a museum pales in comparison to what I’ve seen outside. 

This our world! We have to love it and explore it and be kind and amazing to it!
