Goals
and Expectations
Going
on this Backpacking trip I expect it to be hard and
a little difficult because the big packs are heavy. Plus
we have to carry cooking gear, food, and [the] other thing
[is that] I would probably be cold. I really just want to
get up there and be the toughest girl out there. I'm used
to being a tomboy but I think this will most likely be the
hardest thing I [have] ever done.

Mountains
are everywhere nothing but beautiful mountains
There
are mountains everywhere which are so beautiful to me. I took
so many pictures of the mountains, I don't have enough for
the people I met. It's pretty weird being away from home.
Water
River
how you flow so gently in one place or another. How the
waves crash against the rock as if you had a heartbeat. How
you feel upon my feet: very cold, but heart warming and gentle.
As you flow I wonder do you ever stop or [do you] go on forever.
I wish I was a river so peaceful and clam, not bothering a
soul and not a soul to bother me. I wonder sometimes why people
hurt you. You have done nothing but provide for us. I wish
there was a way for me to give back to you.
River
you're the most beautiful
thing I have ever seen. Some parts of you are so rough but
still I continue to wonder is it because we have wasted you
time and time again. Or is it because we have destroyed you.
But sometimes we never know how much we hurt you as we hurt
ourselves. Water, you're too pure to lose, we need you always.
