I was talking to somebody about surviving in the woods, and after I'd shared some info with them the person said something to me that took me aback: Wow, you're a survival expert!"
"No," I told them, "There's no such thing. I am a STUDENT of survival, as is everyone else. True, some have learned far more than others, but in the end, the only real "expert" is the master, and that is ma nature herself! She calls the shots! It's also true that if you learn all you can about both getting experienced in the outdoors, and how to "BE PREPARED," you will probably never find yourself in a true survival situation. Most often it's the ill-prepared and the inexperienced people that fail in a dangerous, unexpected situation while they're out and about! So if you to want to become true student of survival, then climb aboard." This is a great conversation starter!.....
