Pikes Peak

The first time wasn't enough. Second time round, the world was falling apart while I was climbing a mountain. Climbing a mountain is a lot like life. God has called each of us to do amazing things, but when we see the destination, so far and unattainable, it's easy to get discouraged. How do you get there? One step at a time. Keep your eyes on the path, the goal in your heart, and voices of encouragement around you. Also, drink lots of water and take a power bar or two. Take all your bathroom stops before you reach the treeline, and last of all, don't believe the sign that says, "16 Golden Stairs". It's a lot more than 16, and it's anything but golden.
