My mom taught me a big life lesson when we would go camping that stuck with me:
always leave A PLACE
better than you found it.
I say it on every single camping trip now as an adult. I practice it on every camping trip. It’s how I leave a home when it’s time to move out. It’s how I try to live my life.
