Of all tools I keep on me while trekking and living in the wilds, the Leatherman Wave multi-tool is the last one I would give up. It serves so many purposes that I use it multiple times a day, and feel naked without it.

One of the downsides of having Tubeless Fat Tires is that it’s nearly impossible to re-inflate them if you get a flat on the side of the road, but it seems a bit of Rubber Cement can solve that problem.

Today on Ask Cahlen I’m answering the question, “What is Truth?”

While I believe Cryptocurrencies are worth investing in the short-term, I suspect that they will ultimately fail in the long-term due to catastrophic loss of the electric grid they rely on.

Today on Ask Cahlen I’ll be answering the question, “What do you eat?”
I have a feeling the person asking this question is specifically curious about what I eat when I’m living nomadically on my Solar eBike, but my diet is a little different now that I’m living in a cabin in the mountains, so I’ll describe both situations.

Today on Ask Cahlen I’m answering the question, “Yes or no?”
The person who asked this made sure to clarify that it was a serious question and so I’ll go ahead and answer it and say, “Yes and no.” The reason I say that is because I believe, to steal a phrase from George Kavassilas, this is a universe of contrasting expressions. Now I don’t think all universes are necessary like this but it definitely seems to be that our universe is.

Today on Ask Cahlen I’m answering the question, “Why did you stop living in a yurt?”
So for those of you don’t know, I spent a decent amount of time, about a year and a half maybe two years, living in a structure called a yurt.

Today on Ask Cahlen I’m answering the question how did the Camping Yurt hold up.
So for those of you who don’t know, there was a period of time probably a year or two ago where I was living on a permaculture farm in a yurt. I bought it from the company called Camping Yurts (campingyurts.com) which is a company which makes yurts which are very portable, so it’s easy to pack them into your car and take them on a short trip. I was actually using it as a permanent structure and I lived in it for probably over six months to almost a year, I can’t remember for sure.

Natural Law is a set of rules inherent to the universe, much like the Law of Gravity, which govern the effects resulting from the free will choices of creatures with the capacity to reason.
Natural Law is known by many other names, such as Moral Law, Karmic Law, God’s Law, etc. Its basic premise is that there is an objective difference between right and wrong, and that while all beings are free to do as they please, they are not free to escape the consequences of their choices.
