The pond is quiet and still, save for the wind resulting in soft ripples across the cold surface. Judging by the surrounding area and an increase in my dog’s interest, geese have been here not too long ago, but must have decided to travel somewhere a bit warmer for now. Geese eat plants and berries in addition to nuts, so staying here to find food might prove slightly difficult. The steady crunching of leaves draws my attention. I bring myself to stand and make polite conversation with this stranger before we both go our separate ways. I wave goodbye and call for my dog and we make our way into the woods, the cold wind getting colder as the sun begins to set.

Comparing my hour watching TV to my hour spent in the woods behind my house, I definitely felt a lot more free and happy outdoors. While watching Live PD, the events tended to move a lot more quickly and the hour felt like it was up a lot faster than when I was outside. When in nature, I was able to think at my own pace and my thoughts felt less like they were controlled by my environment. I definitely felt a lot more awake and alert than I did watching TV, and it was easier for me to actually absorb my surroundings. I definitely learned a lot while watching Live PD, but the information I retained definitely wasn’t as useful compared to my thought process while outdoors.
