I enjoy hiking, and I enjoy hiking alone.  I think I figured out why:  Walking through the woods is one of the very few times I have no distractions.  I'm not at work.  I'm not near a computer.  I don't have my cell phone on.  I'm not in my house, where I might feel compelled to clean or fix things.  I'm not driving.  I'm not visiting or talking to people.  It's just me and the woods.  How much simpler can life get? #psychology
