Camp Stories February 6th 2025, 6.58 pm.
00:00:07.474 --> 00:00:17.172
My favorite part of a campfire is when the wood begins to glow.
00:00:17.172 --> 00:00:23.431
It's things like this that I think about more each day that I grow older.
00:00:23.431 --> 00:00:29.664
The calm, the crackle, the smell, the smell on my face.
00:00:29.664 --> 00:00:30.849
It's magical.
00:00:30.849 --> 00:00:35.070
When I was younger, I didn't look out the window and see.
00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:38.127
I saw a bunch of nothing.
00:00:38.127 --> 00:00:46.088
Now I see the trees, the sky, the water, the life that's happening in front of me.
00:00:46.088 --> 00:00:52.893
I enjoy just how rare it is to see and hear how beautiful those things are.
00:00:54.119 --> 00:01:08.090
Our society is stuck in boxes, digital hell holes that never need water, because those trees are fake, those pictures are stages, those comments are AI.
00:01:08.090 --> 00:01:19.287
We live in a world that's on the edge of World War III and I feel like we are pulled away from the simple things even more today.
00:01:19.287 --> 00:01:23.920
We can't have a thought without just pulling out our phones.
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:30.972
We can't have a thought without just pulling out our phones.
00:01:30.972 --> 00:01:35.540
Example I wonder what eight ounces in a cup is Siri?
00:01:35.540 --> 00:01:36.963
What's eight ounces in a cup?
00:01:36.963 --> 00:01:37.665
And it's there.
00:01:37.665 --> 00:01:40.893
You don't call your mother for that answer anymore.
00:01:40.893 --> 00:01:47.828
You don't reach out to your grandmother, who loves to feel needed.
00:01:47.828 --> 00:01:48.411
We're stuck.
00:01:48.411 --> 00:01:54.864
I feel so stuck constantly.
00:01:56.427 --> 00:01:57.629
Will anything change.
00:01:57.629 --> 00:02:01.114
Will the world slow down again like it did in 2020?
00:02:01.114 --> 00:02:09.305
Will I be able to smell the roses and drive down Topanga Canyon in Los Angeles and see the ocean without any smog?
00:02:09.305 --> 00:02:17.645
Will we be able to go anywhere in the world and not be judged because we come from a country that's not respected anymore?
00:02:17.645 --> 00:02:21.933
When will the fire glow?
00:02:21.933 --> 00:02:25.508
When will there be peace in my mind?
00:02:25.508 --> 00:02:28.608
When will I believe in humanity?
00:02:28.608 --> 00:02:32.649
When will people around me see what I see?
00:02:32.649 --> 00:02:35.866
How is it just me?
00:02:35.866 --> 00:02:38.126
Why is it just me?
00:02:38.126 --> 00:02:54.836
I crave the calm, the crackle, that wonderful smell of a magical campfire.
