Upward Reach

There are times while up high, you just don’t know where you’re going to end up. You know where you’re heading, but what lies in the distance along the way is uncertain. Is there a drop off? Will you become stymied? Is there dense thicket? Will you have to turn back or climb more? Are you on the right track? When up high with such a distance in view, the fear is exhilarating. It is during these times of exploration and pursuit that I feel most alive. And this answers many questions about life, who I am and where I am going in general.

Traversing a ridge to a path of uncertainty.
