I have a lot to learn. A thought I had after my experience on the river was to 
make a project of photographing the river, of learning to photograph the river, 
spending a lot of time getting to know it. I would bring a lot of things 
together for me, e.g., a passion about nature, the environment, ecology. I 
would learn something about photography, maybe get better at it. It would 
require letting go of some other things that matter to me, but it's not a 
passing thought. It's getting serious consideration.

Will do.
