Decision to preparation to action takes some giant leaps.
This trip has been a part of my life and thoughts for 3 months now but nothing
compares to the morning of. I wake up with an energy that is electric – I can
barely sit still to write this blog. Together with that sits a knot in my stomach
expressing the dread of what I’ve undertaken. I realise that this is actually a
big deal. Yes, another crazy idea that I’m actually putting into practice!
I can’t actually believe that the day has arrived, that this
is really happening. The logistics of the things that need to get taken care of
before I leave are a mere distraction from my feelings that are overwhelming.
As I sit here and write, I am filled with love and emotion
for the way this journey has taken hold and I’m touched with the outpouring of
love and support that I’ve experienced. My eyes fill with tears at the messages
that I receive from my friends wishing me well on this journey. The prayers,
quotes and words are filled with love and that is ultimately what this journey
is about.
As I say see you soon – lehitraot, tot siens – I’m carrying
all that love and encouragement with me and I know that this is what will get
me to the summit! On those cold, lonely, exhausting days and nights I will know
that you are all with me rooting for me to go further – one step at a time!
Onwards and upwards my friends…
