It doesn't matter. He will never stop to ask for directions and will remain out in the forest, hence he will never learn whether he is right or wrong.

There are times when remaining in the forest is preferable. For those of you who have not had the experience of eating fresh killed rabbit, roasted cattail roots, and some Ritz crackers you had stashed in your pack, it can be a transcendental experience.

I like the forest, but I have trouble seeing it for all the damn trees in the way.

I prefer squirrel, but, yes, I know of what you speak. Ask directions? Why? Being lost is an existential experience. "I's lost, therefore I am."

My wife usually knows where, or how, to find me. I can't wait till we get up to Vermont full time where there is no cell phone service. Then I can be lost and unheard back in the woods.

I got lost 25 years ago. I'm still trying to find my way back. I keep asking Republicans for directions, but all they say is " not THIS way ".

Everyone has not picked up on the fact, "of course". The forest is part of Mother Nature, implying female.

Almost forgot, rattlesnake and dandelion greens. This was on a Boy Scout camping trip.

I took a comparative religion course years ago and the prof stated that "Mother Earth" religions predominated in lush, fertile regions with relatively benign weather while "Father Sky" religions were in regions with harsh climates and severe landscapes, often deserts.

In Mother Earth regions, the land sprung for with abundant supplies of food with sufficient rain being a given while in Father Sky regions rains was scarce and erratic, therefore Father Sky was important in providing the fluid that brought for plants from the earth.

Maybe an overly broad generalization, but I haven't found too many varieties. I'll take a Mother Earth region any day of the week.

I wouldn't know. I have never been lost. At least not completely, because I always know where I ain't.

Sounds like an existential revelation: "I know where I am because I know where I ain't."

Sarte would be jealous, the stuffy little toad.

My BFF has a dandelion greens salad many have complemented. Yours truly has never had it. It is one of her least favorite items to shop for and make.

Such a prodigious memory for one of your years. :lol: 8-)
