On
cloud’s rest, 10,000 feet:
By far the most challenging and hardest thing/obstacle I have
ever done in my life! Although at the very beginning I felt
like quitting (5 minutes), I know somewhere deep down I had
the will power to keep going. At the end of the day, I felt
so proud of myself and through the aches and pains, it felt
so rewarding.
From nature
I have leaned that life may not always be beautiful but it’s
a beautiful ride. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous regardless
of the obstacles we face to reach that scenery. When you are
at the point of giving up and don’t have it in you to
push yourself, always remember that the end result is amazing.
Appreciate your achievements, because there may be someone who
is not as capable and yet feel as if they are at the top of
the world.
Two weeks
ago no where in my mind would I have been caught dead coming
to this wonderful once in a lifetime trip. I was asked about
a month ago and without thinking twice I automatically said
NO! There is no way on earth I would miss two days of school
because I saw this as a waste of time. One of the reasons for
why I am here is because I have never taken any risks, hardcore
challenges, or just simply adventures. I didn’t want to
go the rest of my life thinking that the only stories I was
going to tell my children & grandchildren are of me being
a school nerd. Now, I have something to look forward to and
I am extremely grateful we got the opportunity to do something
like this. I knew I wanted to experience something like this
but the chance was never there nor was it going to be.
