My palms develop calluses as I grip the handholds
My feet ache as I pushed against the footholds
My arms are pumped up as blood is diverted to them
I feel the power of gravity as it hauls me back to earth
And I am tempted to let go
It’s the next level of difficulty
My mind says breathe
My heart says be still
My eyes say look for a better grip
My arms and legs say rest on the wall
My soul says be positive and move along
Rock climbing develops your grit, your persistence and your intellect
There is always a way to finally reach the top
Some can do it because they have unravelled these traits
They are strength, stamina, strategy, stability, stillness, silence, style and sentiment
I will get there, at the top of this level, one day.
These are the qualities that will get me whatever I want in life
