Journal Day 3
The pressures of the copse behind, my pace lagged a bit today. A commonality on each planet and rock I've visited has been the nature of my own reaction to the pressures, traps, difficulties, and dangers present. Those that I can see and assess readily are overcome easily enough and inspire me toward greater ambitions and success. Yet, in their absence they hinder and become even greater obstacles. For now, the ridge is my goal, and to it I go, despite the lack of hazards afoot. The worst thing would be to travel languidly and miss my own deadline for reaching the ridge.

Eli set is journal aside with a, "hrumph!," steeled his gaze, and spent a few moments in silent gumption-building before laying back to craft dreams of vim, vigor, and productivity.
