"But I'll tell you what hermits realize. If you go off into a far, far forest and get very quiet, you'll come to understand that you're connected with everything."
Alan Watts

So connected he can see our irreversible impending doom. Have a nice day

2:19 "I had nothing to prove, no goals no anything". So simple yet so deep.

Many years ago i went into the woods to get away from evil people


It was the best time of my life


I cleaned the rivers from garbage


Made shelters for animals


Learned how to survive


I had the best sleep of my life


You can't compare sleeping in the woods with sleeping in a bed


When you live in so called "civilization" every day is filled with anxiety


You may not notice that anxiety but its always there

I've heard this saying 'there's a difference between being alone and being lonely'. Billy, if you're seeing this you're awesome! And to all those on the NG team who filmed, edited and brought this to our attention, thank you

This is totally unrelated to the point of the video, but I'm curious: how does he earn money or pay for supplies?

Takes a special kinda person to live like this. Most people romanticize this lifestyle but they’re not built for it, the adjustment from how their living to this would be too much
