I have a nephew in his early 20s that probably couldn't even walk a mile without getting tired and he's not over weight either, just lazy.

I'm 42 and can pretty much walk 10+ miles and more but I've had some injuries in my late teens so some bones hurt sometimes when walking a lot but energy-wise I feel great.

The only time I won't spend any time outside is if it's raining but that will change eventually.

When I moved from north FL to south FL, I gave up a house and decided to rent until my wife and I are truly decided on what city to settle down in. With me being only 42 and her 37, we're still relatively young and have plenty of time before finding a new house to settle down into.

When that time comes, if there's no screened in porch or covered area, I'll just build one. That seems to be another major difference in generations. The newer generation doesn't seem to be as mechanically inclined in life and lack many useful skills but it's not really their fault.

The younger generation has grown up in a time of cell phones, internet, endless TV channels 24/7, social media, and more. When I was a kid cell phones weren't even a thing and then they had the bulky mobile phones for certain cars and the giant mobile phones that were cordless.

I remember the old rotary phones too lol. I was raised to be outdoors and enjoy this world. Sit outside and see lizards running around, such a simple thing but just part of the world.

Oddly enough while I currently live in the middle of the city, saw a baby possum sleeping outside but had to wake him up because he was on a tarp of mine.

He gave me a dirty look and walked off. A lot of people don't understand the importance of animals. It's a proven fact that most serial killers either abused or murdered animals before moving to people.

Big city life takes people away from nature which is most of this planet. Us humans are just a tiny part of the planet and so many live in the big city concrete jungles and rarely ever see or interact with nature which is most of the planet.

I'm not saying people should spend all their time outdoors but people that choose to work nonstop and stay indoors often will suffer mentally and physically throughout life.

People that are active and outdoors a lot typically will live a longer life, a healthier life, and often a more stress free life. We're only guaranteed this one life so we should enjoy it but we also can live 100 years so taking a pause from everything can be more about mentally recharging than physically.
