Überleben is German word meaning “to survive” — and/or, “to live well”. While those meanings appear the same, they’re different. Yes, fire is essential to survival. However, “survival” is not the reason we run into the woods, alone. We’re doing this because something deep inside us is still whispering, “build fire or die”. Not in an attempt to escape physical death — but psychological death. We long to live, not merely survive.
