See You at the Top!

I joined a group of mountaineers to climb Pico de Loro years ago.
when we started , there were more than a hundred of us. Midway through the climb, half of us were turning back I was a newbie who did not even prepare physically for such a strenuous task.

But in my mind, I wanted to see the mountaintop. The terrain got tougher as we trekked further. It was a mistake to wear shorts

The small branches were poking into my skin snd my legs were bruised. I could see some blood but it did not bother me. My

Desire to get a mountaintop view was stronger than the discomfort I was feeling. I was tired… my water bottle was running low. I would test for some time, then continue. When we were. Almost st the top, there was one major obstacle. A big boulder of which I had to swing myself from one sidr to the other and only a small branch to hold on to. I looked dow and realized what I got myself into. Falling would be death if not debilitating. I mystermy strength tossing myself across the. Boulder then pushed myself up. I continued my trek snd reached the mountain top. Was it worth it to go through hours of walking

Was it worth it to go through hours of walking to see the top? Fir myself, I saw a magnificent view. It was breathtaking. I understood then why the word was coined in. The first place

When we were almost at the top, there was one major obstacle. A big boulder of which I had to swing myself from one side to the other and only a small branch to hold on to. I looked down and realized what I got myself into. Falling would be death if not debilitating. I muster my strength to swing myself across the boulder then pushed myself up. I continued my trek and reached the mountaintop. Was it  worth it to go through hours of walking to see the top?  For myself, I saw a magnificent view. It was breathtaking. I understood then why the word was coined in the first place. There were only a handful of us who were there at the top. A foreigner asked me. "How did you do it? Down there, we thought you would not make it." They saw me tired and catching my breath. I replied..."I took one step at a time." It was not just the mountaintop that I saw but a sense of exhilaration that I felt  for being able to do something I set my heart on. 
Take one step at a time. People don't think its possible. People are turning back.. Obstacles abound. There are setbacks. But to those people whose desire is as strong as mine. My message to you is  "See you at the Top!". Thank you God for all the learning. May Your Name be glorified in my life.-----Faith Lim
