What the outdoors mean to Dr.:
The outdoors is peace. It’s the place where I can breathe, move, and think clearly. I feel closer to God while out in his creation. Being outdoors challenges me. Nature doesn’t care about the things that we often worry about - money, power, status, and not even our feelings matter to the outdoors. It helps me reset and reminds me of what really matters in this world when life gets loud and cluttered.
