Green Canyon

What a fantastic day! Think about the time you were able to accomplish something you struggled to complete. Near the end you felt worn down, your legs began to give out, and so forth. But when you finally reached the summit of your goal/trial, you were blessed to bask in the delight of accomplishing something special.

I did something similar to that today. Today was my second hike, after I decided to take up hiking a few weeks ago. I took the trail up Green Canyon. It was fantastic! I struggled to get to the Yert, or the trailhead to Mt. Naomi, but I made it! The last couple of miles the trail was covered in snow! In some places at the top, the snow went up to my knees! When I got to the top, all my weariness melted right away. I had pushed myself beyond what I thought I had the strength to do. It felt fabulous! I may be plumb worn out, but inside I know I did something to be proud of.
