Thank you for your work! I have read some of your articles on your website and they truly mesmerize me, especially the one about survival in the stone age. I am not going to go into the modern world and it’s differences, but as i read the article i realized that people lived much differently than how we live today. Everything from sleeping to eating, hunting and crafting, we’ve gone from that to almost like this imaginary world of unhealthy foods, TV’s, internet, heaters, microwave’s, cars and escalators. If some higher power would just take these away and just drop us un the wild, we would be nothing, unknowing, confused and naked. Those people thousands of years ago knew the actual game, the real world, they knew everything or at least the majority of it. They knew how to hunt, gather, sleep in the cold, craft boots from sticks, fish, even hunt whales, which was a suprise to me, knowing how big those animals can get. But on the other hand i am a 21 year old living in city where the nearest whale is probably hundreds of miles away from me, somewhere in the vast ocean. Anyways I learned a lot from that article, i am now hooked on this topic because of you, so thank you, thank you for what you do and have a blessed day!

Dear Emils, I’m so glad that my writings have opened a window onto the past for you.  It can be quite a revelation to realise that, for all our civilised ways (or rather, because of them), we wouldn’t manage in the wild nearly as well as our Stone Age ancestors.  Of course, there are advantages to living in the twenty-first century, such as modern medicine, to name just one.  But we’ve lost something too.  Anyway, I’m really delighted that you’ve become interested in this, and thanks again for getting in touch!  With best wishes, Michelle
