It is a vulnerable feeling sleeping under the stars with no house for protection.

I always had an urge to climb a tree, But that is wicked uncomfortable, and close to impossible to sleep.

"All deaths are suicides, do you realize that? Every single one. The only distinction is that, with some people, suicide is a subconscious choice, and with others it's a conscious choice. Otherwise, those who commit suicide and those who succumb to accident, illness or "old age," die for exactly the same reason: belief in the inevitability of death." Linda Goodman

Ive been reading about wilderness survival boot camps or wilderness schools where parents send their children off with hopes of becoming stronger and better.
But most of them end up dead.
The trainin is very harsh very similar to being lost in jungle but parents hardly anticipate that.
The regimen is very grueling both physically and mentally...!They are made to eat very meagre meals sometimes scorpians lizards etc and
Wilderness therapy never ever works for common people like us.
P.S do not ever send your kids to these camps.

One is supposed to read the tips then take the quiz. Ever the heedless aquarius, I took the test cold and got 60%. It said I was like the survivor tv show and my shelter would be swept away and the snakes would eat me.

I wondered if it were good to get that pre-packaged food. Has anyone?

Probably no better or worse than other processed food.
