“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” - Philippians 4:13

Today for the first time my coworker took me to go hiking at Cowles Mountain. Mind you, I haven’t been hiking, nor have I really worked out in a good 2 years. The first 10 minutes of going up the hills and zig zag paths, I honestly wanted to give it. I was so tired I didn’t even want to try after looking at how far I had to go just to reach the top. I was actually debating if I should turn around and just wait for them. But then I thought, If I quit now, is this how I’m going to be for the rest of my life? Quit when the going gets tough? I know this sounds like a stupid post, but all those kind of thoughts were running through my mind. I eventually toughed it up, picked up my pace and motivated myself all the way up to the top. And let me tell you, it was the best feeling setting foot on top of that mountain. Not to mention how beautiful the sun looked since it had just risen. I take what I did today as a lessoned learned for what comes my way in life. No matter how much I want to give up and how tough the road gets, the view is always worth it in the end (:
