Oh yes getting lost is a habit of mine too.Google satnav are just no good at all.I prefer to look about me and remember trees signs smells etc.Festivals are a nightmare.I got lost in a nightclub and had to get a bouncer to help me back to where I wanted to go.2 Hours of my wedding reception wasted 😵💫Keep up your lovely thoughts xx
Dysorienta is a grave matter. Thank God for gravity. At least that part of Dysorientais settled. Case in point. We were four youngsters lost in the woods. We kept going around in square circles., until we got to a dried brook. We followed the brook on its downward course and lo and behold we got to a clearing with a house erected on it. When it comes to non gravitational directions I summon a trick that I learned from a science class about the direction of flow of electricity wire etc.. The trick is actually called Fleming's Left-Hand Rule. I still remember clearly how people laughed when a student asked "Yes but how do you know which hand is our left hand." Considering that this was a science class the question could have been taken more seriously. But do not fear it took me twenty years to certify the validity of the question. And I had found my answer to my friend's question. The heart! In 99% of the cases the human heart is located on the left side of the thoracic cage. So if you are among the 99% of the heart statistic then you should be able to use the heart clue. I hope that this approach can be useful.
Jeanne! This was lovely. Although I am “good with directions” and prefer old school paper maps over google, I often find myself disoriented when out hiking or running a trail. Which has much to do with getting lost in the tremendous beauty of nature and life itself. Maybe not a bad thing.
