Why I Started Walking At Night...

Even though and maybe especially because it won't change the world around me...

I've started wandering out at night...

After years of keeping close watch on the world through news and trusted sources, I find myself going crazy with paralysis about all the shit going on which I simply cannot impact in any meaningful way.

But, I can wander in the dark...

It’s humbling. There is barely any impact on the world.

And it can be scary as I go to certain spots — like the ravine nearby populated by a few homeless hermits, rough and tough types walking their pitbulls and gangs of young men prowling through.

And invigorating.

I can face the uncertainty I feel viscerally in my body and in the woods at night.

And stumble and search for my footing at times…

And I can learn to trust myself and the allies in my life in these uncertain times.

And even meet new people wandering at night and strike up a friendly conversation.

That is why I am doubling down on building community.

And why I am gathering men this Thursday after sunset for an evening of mystery and discovery.

So we may find ourselves in the darkness... together.

Finding Ourselves...
