I believe in a greater order of things that what goes on around me.
As humans, we've supposedly gone through 10,000 years of civilisation and when I look around or read the news... it's a little disappointing.
I've only ever felt complete when riding. As VNSVLE says, "Riding is the ultimate in freedom and the feeling of exhilaration."
The first time I ever felt I'd done the 'right' thing was when I held my youngest daughter for the first time.
On a basic level, we are on this planet to procreate. There's a whole lot of crap between being born and dying, but the only time we actually do something positive is when we can further the human race by advancing it in some way.
Evolving into something we can be proud of is one thing.
Getting bogged down in the soap-opera of life is something completely different.
