Sometimes we must make decisions that our people do not understand. The need inside is so strong that the pulls from outside must be ignored.
That is where I have been for the past year and a half. I know I belong on the mountain, despite the challenges.

My family gifted me a battery port and solar panel to keep me connected even during power outages.

This is the best give of all. Maybe they cannot understand my decision, but they support my decision.
