But, I had my hiking buddies by my side, encouraging me, making sure I took that next step.
Step by step, I reached the top, the view was breathtaking. It felt like I had died and gone to heaven. I cried, a mix of emotions, happiness and pride. In that moment, I forgot about all my aches and pains.
Life is lot like a hike, you plan, you set your goals, take one step at the time, and surround yourself with the right people to guide you and encourage you, even when the path gets tough.
The best part? Reaching the top and seeing what is possible. Makes it all worth it.
