Sidetracked - Volume 31

Closer to Nature

Adventure is a communion between the human spirit and the natural world. It reminds us that by seeking the courage and sensitivity to experience this greater truth, we can find peace. By connecting with nature we return to the source.In this issue of Sidetracked we have selected stories in which adventure strengthens our connection to the natural world. There's solace and wonder to be found there, often gratitude, but rarely comfort. This relationship with nature can give adventure a framework. Perhaps it can give life meaning too.
