Some people learn situational awareness from books, workshops, or military training.
Mine came from childhood accidents, close calls, & the kind of rural life where danger hides in ordinary places...
I’ve lived almost my entire life in solitude, not out of dislike for people, but because solitude is where I feel most awake and engaged.
Give me quiet, and I thrive.
Standing by the Yangtze River, watching the bridge stretch across the water like a giant thread connecting two worlds.
The Yangtze is huge, calm, & full of history. Being here reminds me how far I’ve come & how much I’m still learning every day.
