One day i decided to take a trip. to get away from everything. people.traffic. ex-girlfriend. life in general. everything. My friend phill and i went to alaska and back. We spent 2 months there camping, fishing, climbing and working. It was the most beautiful thing ive ever seen before in my life.

When i started planning this trip it was in a very bitter and depressing time for me. i got hurt on by someone who i completly adored. I had no direction or motivation at all. No plan or balance for anyting that was going on in my life. My love for learning and teaching my faith was dry. i felt so alone and useless.
I honestly thank god for making my life suck so bad that i wanted to give up. i thank him for teaching me everything while i was away.


some nights we so bad and so lonley phill and i would just stare at eachother and cry ourselves to sleep. We prayed and prayed everynight that we would be safe from animals and people. i found myself in alaska. i know who i am, what i like, and what i am. i love myself and love to be myself.
some think it was irresponsible and stupid, i know it was gift from god and i would'nt change anything that i did. i walked into those woods one person and walked out a completly different person 64 days later.
