from the top

Aug 1, 2012

I got a hankering to climb a mountain one day recently, so I made it happen.  It was tough, and even though I consider myself in fairly good condition, I got frustrated with how difficult it was and just about gave up.  “This better be worth it” is what I thought as I continued my climb, and I pushed myself up, up, up to the top of the mountain.  I am so glad I did, because it was totally worth it.
