Walking great distances has never been extreme behavior to me. It has forever helped me regain my equilibrium, and I would always rather do the existentially important things in my life on foot.

Traveling by car or aeroplane wouldn't be right at such a moment.

I will never understand the hate for grey hairs. Your hair has sliver in it now. You have the color of stars on your hair. You have proof you survived and grew up. You have proof you are living. How is any of this bad?
