Report Increased Confidence

We didn’t have anything else to worry about but being in the present moment. In those moments you start noticing things. Like on one trail it was a mile from the ocean and during the moment of silence I noticed there was so much sand on the trail that was still wet from rain the day before. It sounded so different from leaves crackling under our feet on the other hikes. It was a very big difference from the constant noise of the city.
