A Sense of Purpose
There’s a powerful link between challenge and connection. When things are easy, we’re less engaged. Engagement requires effort. By testing ourselves we can forge that sense of purposeful connection – with the people around us, with the natural world, and with ourselves.
This volume of Sidetracked champions connection and engagement over taking the easy way. While Lana Tannir seeks a link between childhood imagination and Finnish folklore, Hamish Frost and friends attempt to climb untouched summits in Nepal. Ian Finch documents the efforts of Indigenous biologists to conserve dwindling moose populations, and Jenny Tough, in ‘Koan’, asks herself to justify adventure on her bicycle at 5,000m in Ladakh. Meanwhile, Krystle Wright seeks digital disconnection in order to achieve physical connection – an act of deliberate engagement with the natural world.
We live in an era of unprecedented abundance and choice for more people than ever before. Intentionally taking the hard path, turning away from ease and comfort to strengthen something in our souls, requires effort – but can reveal our sense of purpose.
