This reminds me a time I passed this 20-something man on a trail in Utah. He was only wearing shorts, no water, no shoes and had a look on his face that I can only describe as "holier than thou enlightenment"

My first reaction when I saw him was to roll my eyes and judge the fuck out of him, then it occurred to me that my reaction was just another version of what I saw in him. So thank you random stranger for allowing me to see the bullshit that I carry in me. But seriously if you are hiking in Utah, wear shoes and take water with you!

There are times when I see someone doing something harmless, but smugly that I try to change my eye roll to "good for them."

Life is just a lot better when I don't care if someone is doing stuff the "wrong" way.
