Episode 349 - THE FIELD OUT BACK

In this episode of "The Thick and Mystic Moment," host Robert John Hadfield reminisces about his childhood adventures in a vast field behind his house. As a kid, this field seemed enormous, an endless playground for his imagination. Today, it’s just three average home plots, but back then, it was his world of exploration and discovery.
Robert draws parallels between the boundless excitement of his childhood adventures and the thrill of discovering new places as an adult. He shares a recent experience filming a recruiting video in a remote town, where he realized how often we overlook the wonders right in our backyard. Through conversations with locals, he was reminded of the beauty and opportunities surrounding us every day.
He also shares an inspiring story about Edwin Way Teale, a renowned naturalist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author. Teale’s journey from documenting the wonders of a small four-acre land to traveling thousands of miles and finally returning to find beauty in his own farm echoes the theme of appreciating what’s right in front of us.
Join Robert as he explores the concept that true adventure and fulfillment can be found close to home. He encourages listeners to rediscover the treasures in their own surroundings and the people around them. Remember, if we find nothing of lasting interest where we are, we're likely to find little of lasting interest where we wish to go.
