We will walk, occasionally feel annoyed that our past self thought not staying in bed was a good idea, we bitch about it, we bitch about other things that bother us, we breathe fresh air and calm down and see the water stream and smile, we share our hopes and dreams, then the conversation would take a sudden, dark turn towards AI overlords, and while we're lost in that imaginary future we realize that we are actually lost on the trail and have to retrace our steps to find the path again. It's a whole fucking journey, my friend! I'm telling ya...
