Food versus comfort, what will they choose?
Mom, my brother and I were out hunting when the van just...died. I said" Darn." and was over it. I'd been walking for the last four years of my life because I'd known it would happen all my life. So I was prepared. But they were thinking that I was wrong, so they weren't. So, because I'd walked with bags of grass on my back so I could gallop like the wind's speed and a half, I got my brother home on my back with plenty of energy left. Mom was a little more tricky because she wanted to go back to get the van and therefore fought back for a while, but when she got tired it was very easy.
Another time the GPS broke and I had to direct them. Seeing as I knew that would eventually happen, I was, once again, prepared. But when I asked them what they wanted most and they said for the car and GPS to be fixed ( even though I'd hoped they'd choose food), I finally broke and spent all the money we had for them to be fixed. Including food money.
I had purposely spent the food money so they would stop worrying about first world problems and think about survival. So I secretly hunted on my own and ate but wouldn't use the vehicle or GPS device. They used both vehicle and GPS device but eventually couldn't eat. When they saw me thriving, they connected that to me not using the electronics and how I got over it quickly when everything died. At least my family was smart enough to do that.
So they said," How do you thrive when you spend more energy?" And when I asked what was most important in life, especially when I put emphasis on life and made it sound like living, they saw in my eyes that I had gone for meat, not moving in comfort or a GPS device( or, at least not one that broke down and is not called knowledge of the area) and they only had one more question, which they asked." Why?" So I told them they had to learn the lesson. And we ate and I eventually started to use the electronics again. But I still train in case that happens again. Just, now it's in a group.
