Do you know that feeling of accomplishment when we have worked on something for so long and it is finally finished? You hold it. You sit back and look at it admiring your handiwork. You call your friends and brag about it. You takes pictures from every angle and post for the public to ooh and aah over. Many of us can remember the last time that has happened, for we are project managers. We are constantly doing something for ourselves in this lifestyle. If we truly love this lifestyle and are not just in it because it is the going thing, then we understand what it is like to change up our rig, create that new thing, and install that gear that will make our lives out in the wild blue yonder easier than ever before.
But are you ever completely finished? I know there are times when we can see the finish line and push harder and harder, we run faster than we ever have to reach it, but it seems like it keeps moving on us. It is an unreachable concept instead of an obtainable reality. We may get there, but I doubt it. As long as gear companies keep making gear and as long as the government keeps printing money, we will always be making changes to our rigs. However, it is fun, exciting and it is part of the lifestyle of being an Overlander. Look for the finish line and be excited when you see it, but reaching it? Well, that is for another sport, not for me.
