Here's a poem I wrote after climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland.
Water reveals itself to be
But a small drop in a network
of lochs and inlets from the sea
The higher you go, the more you see
and understand
Looking back -
Were we really that far down once?
Is that the path we walked?
Seeing how far you've come gives you will to keep going.
The peak is in view! Don't turn back now!
The sun is a gift -
not every traveler has the path laid out this clearly.
We can't be afraid of what we can see.
