Realism vs Reality.

Most people , canoeist and kayakers,
don’t encounter as many adventures on

the Mississippi River as I do because
of many factors that relate to them and

not to me.

I enjoy the moments, good or bad.

Instead of reality television lives that
hype and edit certain moments in

someone’s life and exaggerating. Or
even not showing at all.

I live a Full Life of Adventures in a re-

al world with real success and real fail-
ures.

AND I AM NOT AFRAID TO ADMIT

OR TELL SOMEONE ABOUT THEM
BECAUSE I LEARN FROM EXPE-
RIENCES.

As a Christian in the Great Outdoors I

don’t run around every five minutes
with a Praise the Lord or got to Church

anthem, nor even a sinner vs saint atti-
tude.

Reason being sometimes I’m a sinner

sometimes I’m a saint, sometimes I’m
a good man, sometimes I ain’t, as the
song goes and frankly in the back of

my mind always I knew God was with
me.

So though I often was quiet about it. I

had an unfair advantage over some. I
never feared dying.

Been there, done that. I just enjoyed

living in all it’s glory.
