There are revelations upon which one happens when one leaves city life and spends a prolonged period of time on a mountaintop. The behavior associated with these revelations are not necessarily sustainable when one returns to the city, nevertheless, they remain anchored in the mind as truths of life. Mine are as follows:
Daily showers = overrated
Fashion = overrated
Toilets = overrated
Toilet paper = not overrated
Wearing clothes once before washing = completely overrated
Washing hands = completely underrated
The ability to tell the difference between snowprints of a large friendly dog and a mountain lion = underrated
Knowing your career path at the end of college = overrated
Two months ago I may have called this last one a life crisis, but I just spend a prolonged period of time on a mountaintop with 30+ incredibly exciting and like-minded people, with minimal contact with the world outside, and pretty much nothing constitutes a life crisis.
