Out in the wild

"Rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth."

Henry David Thoreau

"En vez de amor, dinero, fe, fama, justicia...dame la verdad"

The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind and deaft stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head.
Christopher Johnson McCandless

(February 12, 1968 – August 18, 1992)

Los unicos regalos del mar son golpes duros, y cada tanto la oportunidad de sentirse fuerte. No conozco mucho del mar, pero si sé que así es aqui. Y tambien sé que es importante en la vida no necesariamente ser fuerte sino sentirse fuerte. Para medirse a si mismo al menos una vez. Para encontrase, aunque sea una vez, en las condiciones mas primitivas. Enfrentando la ceguera y la sordera totalmente solo, con nada para ayudarte salvo tus manos y tu propia cabeza.
