On Granite Mountain

Sitting here alone in nature, on the side of a mountain. Its quiet, except for the bugs buzzing and the birds singing. The solitude clears my mind and makes it easier to think. All the bullshit of daily life doesn't exist here. Deadlines don't feel real, rent payments don't exist, all that exists here is the battle for resources. It's pretty, but everywhere you look the organisms are fighting for the scarce resource of water. It rained yesterday but I imagine that normally water doesn't freely flow down the mountain. The desert is more lush here than I expected. I was expecting more sand, not pretty plants. Trying to make my way up the mountain, climbing rocks, its fun in a dangerous way. I didn't make it to the top when I started writing this, but I found myself a nice rock to sit on with a gorgeous view. Pristine views like this are already in short supply, and soon will be gone if we continue to rape mother nature.
