The John Muir Wilderness inspires and frightens me. I have only been there a couple of times but have a yearning to go...Now. I want to sit by a waterfall and lay in the tall grass. I don't want to be sitting on this blue couch complaining and wishing I would get my ass upstairs and paint. Sometimes I want to escape. Sometimes I want to feel small. Sometimes I don't want the limit of time. Sometimes I want to be a cliche. Sometimes I want to be wild, reckless, and free.
"Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean." - John Muir
