Alright so first off; fuck this place I live in... There's no love and no intelligence so I'm outta here regardless... I'm a complete naturalist at heart and live as much tht way as possible prefer to grow my own everything and here is my dreamy ass pitfall: I want to goto the wilderness of Canada and build my Own sickass log cabin with Hand tools and natural materials which I have seen a few hard put individuals accomplish... Although I wonder why more of us shroom3rites don't do this... I have pretty advanced carpentry skills as well and can do Just abt.anything with my hands or if I really want it done... So question is. What are yalls overall opinions on such a feat? To do or not? I have all the time in the world so thts a non issue. Thanks for allOwing my bs and any responses. Cheers to the most advanced community/non-community known to man. Oh and where I currently reside I'm considered a convicted felon so there's no way I'm going to remain here even if I'm broke as a joke

I would do it. Are you planning on living in the backwoods and holding a job, or going off the grid completely and living off the land? I suggest the former, because you will have to have money to pay taxes and for other items or luxuries such as internet, which if you're anything like most people then that will be difficult to give that up in our day and age.
I think you're thinking positively and that is a good thing. You want to distance yourself from past mistakes that have led to a lesser quality of life for you, a very natural, healthy thing to do. Just don't get so caught up in the thought of running and rebelling from society that you lose touch from reality. Sometimes we must live with our mistakes, and that is for me a lesson hard learned. Just be sure that even if you think you are off the grid and can then do whatever you want, don't be so sure that nobody will be watching you.

Right right and I'm trying to be pretty much off the grid but frankly I care nothing about the Internet or the normal things in people's daily lives today... Judd's give me good food water and shelter with maybe a book to read and some plants to go ndd Im 100% happy so I know I could live content for sure

I recommend that you read up on Happiness by Mattheiu Ricard. He's a guy who spent half of his life as a neuroscientist doing studies on the brain... and then decided he hated Western culture. He ended up moving to Tibet where he became a buddhist monk. Good stuff, I think you should read it

Wow impressive fellas mikethno I will def look into reading tht he sounds like an intelligent fellow. I can't stand this rubbish anymore society/majority as a whole is shit so I will survive without any authorities knowledge nor help... And also luddite I have thought about living with a variety of natives and plan to travel the world doin so but I need to also establish my own base camp ya know? There's so much to learn out there aside from the monotonies shoved in our faces daily by these fools and I want to b immersed in the greater side of things not where all these idiots couldn't get by if they didn't have a microwave let alone live solitarily for a day in the great big thing tht once was our earth.
