Two Steps Forward



Our world suffers from terminal mediocrity. Take a moment to assess all the things around you that encourage you to remain average.

Things that encourge me not to go beyond my limits.

I think I covered this a lot in my last post so I shall leave it as is for that. I wish to talk about a bucket list item that I have recently  (Yesterday), crossed off my list. 

So for many people who visit Jasper, it is one of the many sites and tourist attractions that I think get the most visitors per year. It is the Gondola. That wonderful smooth ride up to the tippy top of mount Whislter.

What I want to say is that I did not do that. I walked up. 5 hours to the top. 8 Kilometers plus a 1.3km incline. Over roots and boulders and small animals. It was grueling and exhausting. But ya know what? I made it. It was worth every step to stand at the top of the mountain and just look at the path that I had to take to get up there.
