The Climb

When you reach
the top of the mountain
remember it is not about the mountain

It is about the legs that did not fail you

It is about the sun that lit your way

It is about the wind that served your momentum

It is about the focus that empowered your stay

It is about the lesson that cleared your vision

It is about the bruise that made you strong

It is about the hand that nurtured your decision

It is about the rain that taught your heart a song

When you reach
the top of the mountain
remember it is not about the mountain
