One of my passions and practices is wildlife tracking: identifying tracks and sign left by animals on the landscape, and reading them to tell the story of (and possibly find) that animal.
This is often met with curiosity. A common question is, “Why do you do this?”
I used to say: I notice more than I ever did before. Or, I always feel better after spending time outside, following tracks. I feel alive outside.
I might also say: It makes the mundane, miraculous.
Let me show you.
