Conquering Self

What are mountains But opportunities To climb and conquer Our fears Of achieving Our own Magnificent potential Overcoming the pitfalls And crevasses Loose boulders Ravines and gorges Dense thickets and forests Or even bone-chilling snow Pumping adrenaline For a magnificent View at the top And the exhilaration Of thumping our chests With pride To scream into the wind “I DID IT!”
