Have any of you simply thought of walking off?

Most of us are so far detached from the environment around us that I'm not sure the majority of mankind could survive on their own..in the wilderness. I know I could, I have a love for being in the woods. There's something special to me to be in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by the primal elements, surviving off of only what you really need. To instead of being detached from the environment, detach yourself from society.

Sometimes I just get strong urges to grab a back pack and take off into the wilderness for good.

I too have had thoughts of someday just leaving for the woods, but then I think of my guitar. Sure, I could play acoustic, but electric kicks so much ass, so I said fuck it.

Someday when I'm older, perhaps, but right now, nah...I'm enjoy making money and buying all this kick ass stuff for myself. Not to mention the weed ain't bad either, but you could grow it outside in the woods too. Surround your cabin with weed plants. Then cops would show and say, "you can't live here" and that would be the end of that.

:stoned:

Ya i would love to do that. I actually plan on doing it at some point maybe in a couple years. mostly cause i hate how shit is here and i dont like being forced to live the way the government says to. but before i can do this i need to take some classes and shit cause i wouldnt be able to survive on my own right now at least not very well

I wouldn't mind staying the night or weekend in the woods. It is relaxing I know that. I think I could survive on my own in the wilderness but how will I ever know?

Every time I get within visible distance of a forest, the urges and instincts become physical pulls and nearly audible calls for me to just break out and start running towards it. A mecca of environment and instinct. Survival and wild-tendencies.. the civility is gracefully drained out of my bones as I become more animalistic.

I love the woods. I live for the survival. I am the wild.

Yes... I too get those urges. Every day of my life.

I dream of going into the woods, being an animal, living off the land . I think life would be simpler and more satisfying.

omg!

Why are Earth would ya want to or need to live in the woods? Wild?

we havent lived in the wild in 2000 years in America anyway,

Move to a third World country they still rely on a Donkey <><


ever heard of campgrounds? campers? pop ups are good! keeps your ass off the cold ground

what would you eat/ road kill? poison berries?

how would you get your water? ice? cereal? cold glass of milk ? with granmas warm chocolite cookies? hmmm? Water?

If ya boil creek/river water you MIGHT avoid some dead carcass germs thats died in the creek, creek/river water is well known to b unsanitary~

what are ya gonna do when your shoes wear out from walking?

what about toilets ya just gonna shit in the dirty? a leaf! as toilet paper dont sound fun !

Living in the wild will kill ya we arent cave people

Id get another brain fart

:stoned:

i'm doing that when spring comes around, moving in the mountains in CO. i'm preparing right now, and im leaving in march

No one said it would be comfortable, like were some hippies prancing in a meadow.......everyday would consist of surviving. I have an attraction to the hardship.

I would hunt, fish, and eat bugs. I would grow my own food as well, and scour. I would boil my water with a fire. But I'm not phobic towards the quality of my water since I'm drinking water likely contaminated with lead anyway. Hard to say nature would contaminate drinking water with lead pipes.

As for something to put on my feet, I'll figure it out eventually and deal with the pain.

And yup, if I was living in the wild, I'd have no desire wipe my ass ;)

Of course I wouldn't do it, because I enjoy being comfortable as well. But a cabin in the woods would be a nice compromise!

yeah, it disgusts me when people are "grossed out" in nature, because people are putting SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many toxins into their bodies every day when they eat any man made food, or let alone drink water. living off the land is much more pure then in this insane world were tricked into seeing as "the normal"
