In this episode, I'm pondering the things I've learned out here in the wild from watching the daily routines of animals, as well as some of the research I've done on the subject. I firmly believe that if we could all get back to our natural state of intelligence, which is more inherently generated from our hearts and the core of our spirits, we could function just as efficiently as a wild animal  Support the show
