What do you really enjoy doing?
I recently started learning hand tool woodworking and won’t shut up about it haha. I found a few books and channels that are helpful and feel real. The more I do it, the more it’s apparent to me that many things around me are just distractions. It’s really nice to unplug from everything and make some things or practice using/sharpening my tools. Those little moments when something clicks feel weirdly fulfilling.
What do you all enjoy doing? Have you found any new passions? What do you like about it?

Hiking barefoot. I've enjoyed hiking for a long time, but recently started doing so shoeless. I find the enhanced situational awareness to be thrilling, and am excited to see how far I can push my feet. I think hiking has always been a way for me to connect with nature, and doing so barefoot adds to that immensely.
That sounds like a unique experience. When I had a running coach for a short while, he said I should curl my toe down as I pull my leg back. The lack of exercising that bottom foot muscle often contributes to flat-footedness. This wasn’t probably an issue when people walked barefoot because we naturally dug into the earth for traction.
Do your feet ever get sore?
They would get pretty sore when I started. Sometimes I'll get some foot cramps at night if I push it too hard. And gravel, miles on gravel trails will leave my feet tender the next day, even after over a year of toughening up my soles
