People should let go. It's important to have joy.

For example, it was raining a lot today. I went for a walk in the forest under the rain. It was very peaceful with nearly nobody. You have small streams of water on the edge of the paths. With everything that the streams could carry, it went to small dams creating 'tiny lakes'.

What I like to do since I'm a kid is breaking the dams to see the water flowing, building some rudimental embankment to redirect the flow.

I was there in the forest walking. I stopped and broke some dams and built some embankments. I had a lot of fun and joy.

This is a good thing to remember to let go, do what we like and give us joy.

@Autistrain @actuallyautistic I love doing that.

When I was a child I spent hours outside during spring thaw doing exactly the same. I'd wander around in rubber boots, breaking up small dams and chipping away ice to form better channels.

I'd also go out in raging snowstorms, particularly at night. Snow does such a good job of deadening sound.

I feel you. Snow is also peaceful. It's nice to be in the middle of nature with the snow around.
