Vlog: hike and philosophy with my four dogs

[ Also read the poem I wrote based on the closing words of this video: When you are in the wilds. ]
In this 1-hour video I show one of my usual hikes with my four dogs. I first talk about the surgery Atlas had and then start commenting on my surroundings. This eventually turns into a philosophical commentary on the importance of putting things in perspective. I discuss fear, beauty, and the ease with which we can conduct ourselves once something has been embedded as second nature. Throughout the video I also make asides, such as to describe the vegetation around me and remark on what my dogs are doing.
