Senses. You have five senses, touch, taste, sight, sound, and smell. You use all these senses on a daily basis, but not necessarily in a survival situation. Ensuring that all your senses are focused and trained is a huge part of surviving out in the wilderness but they are just as important for surviving in […]
We are living in a very volatile world. People are stress out. Mom’s and Dad’s are both working and the kids are being raised by strangers in day care. Because of this they really have not had any solid foundation of home life or in many cases not been taught right from wrong. They have […]

There was a terrible mess through the southern states, specifically Alabama and Georgia when a terrible snow storm went through. Atlanta was hit especially hard and people were stuck in traffic for hours. Many had to leave their cars and walk miles for shelter, a perfect example of making sure you have The Right Shoes. […]
