But, it seems that a lot of people are so into documenting their doings that they aren’t doing them anymore. And that people are so into checking out what their friends are doing that they’re doing nothing more than checking out what their friends are doing.

I read up until there and stopped. Knowing that was just awesome to begin with.
But the second to last paragraph. Hooo Boy. That's a winner:
It’s kind of like racing cyclo-x. Either you get cyclocross or you don’t. And when you do get cyclocross, you realize how special it is. You realize that it takes a trillion skills simultaneously to do it correctly. So many skills, that no one person can possess them all. It’s you against the course. Then you against the competition. A photo can capture a glimpse of cross, but you have to do it to understand it fully.
I didn't take many photos at CX nats. Too much time in the moment and i will carry those memories around until i forget them, which probably will be sooner than i like.
