180° South Page #6

I'm seeing the effects of encroaching progress,

and most of this has to do

with over consumption elsewhere.

It's easy for us to blindly consume when

we don't see the effect it has on other places.

The hardest thing in the world is to simplify your life.

It's so easy to make it complex.

What's important is leading and examine life

because most of the damage caused by human

is caused unintentionally, I think.

In response to people who say : "You can't go back!"

say, what happens if you get to the cliff

and you take 1 step forward,

or you do a 180 turn and take one step forward ?

Which way are you going ?

Which is progress ?

The solution, maybe, for a lot of the world's

problem is just:
turn around take a forward step!

You can't just keep trying to make a flawed system work.

My all life, I've been drawn to open country.

I always return home a little different.

But I know now we can no longer take it for granted.

When open country is gone,

we will be gone with it.

One day, if you've been climbing all your life,

you're going to get to your last climb.

I thought the trip was over,

but Doug and Yvon showed me this unclimbed peak on

the edge of the new park that they tried to climb last year.

They want to give it one more shot

and they've asked me to come along.

What do you want to call the route ?

Nothing.

Just climb it and walk away.

It doesn't matter anymore.

Each of us on our own way gotta do something,

to save your soul, you know ?

Whatever that is.
