The Climb

Life is full of hills and valleys The hardest part of reaching the top of the hill is when you fall all the way back down into the mud You just want to lie there with all your anxiety, failures, stress, and shortcomings But in the end, when you’ve reached the top, you see the full picture, all the reasons for trails The climb has changed you It has revealed your truest potential And as you look back down at the valley, you don’t regret the long and difficult climb up You’re just thankful you didn’t stay in that valley

Is this my life's story? ha ha. So true.
Very well written. I like the metaphor of the valley. You gain a certain vantage point once you leave the valley and stand on higher ground; it is only then that your arduous journey makes sense.
