Here are 10 truths I have come across for how life is like hiking through the world.

1. Slowing Down Is Important

As you travel through life, you need to experience what it means to follow a path for the love of the journey and not in a mad rush to get to the end, or you will miss out on life’s simple pleasures. Hiking teaches you to slow down, observe the world around you and to listen to your body. When your feet can no longer trudge the path ahead, you learn the power of slowing down and gain a new appreciation by realizing that not every path will take you where you intended.
