The mountains we climb are of dreams and life. The mountains we climb...are mountains of the heart, mind and soul. You can either attempt to climb these on your own, away from the comfort and support of those you know, or...
You can choose to go with others, a community. A community of people on the same mission, who have the same values, beliefs and who have similar dreams. A community who values the challenge of the mountain ahead and won't back down despite ragged edges and deep unknown crevices.
These mountains are what build us to be who we're meant to be. Give us the strength to climb higher despite the detours and loss. These mountains are what shows us who's meant to be part of our community and who's not by weeding out those who aren't meant to go on the journey. We all face mountains, no one person's mountain is higher than anyone else's. During our journey home, we will cross several ranges that must be concurred. None of us are protected from them. When you feel that mountain looming ahead, and you feel so small and so tired, tied of being strong for so long, keep going.
There, on the side of the giant, perfectly rugged, hand crafted by God masterpiece mountain, you will find the strength to continue.
There's no going back you see. You must go forward. And when you lay your head down at night and you see your reflection in your tear stained pillow, remember that One who created the Heavens, the One who created you from dust, breaths life into you.
So, take a deep long inhale and fill your lungs with life and grab the hands of those willing to lace up their boots with you. You all have places to go. Together. Tackle that mountain.
