If you're lucky enough to be in the mountains, you are lucky enough.

When something bad happens, you have three choices: let it define you, let it destroy you, or let it strengthen you.

Short quotes.

I stole the quotes from Kelly, they suit me well these days.

"Trail running is a microcosm of life. You appreciate the highs more when you've had some lows, and it teaches you that good things don't come without hard work." Doug McKeever

"Brick walls are there for a reason, brick walls are not there to keep us out, but to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. They are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough." Randy Pausch

"I've had it up to my ass with sedate." Thelma in Thelma and Louise


Tired of brick walls. Lets jump over them!

Scale those walls Olga! They are there to be climbed and then, balance on the top and shout out to the world that you made it!

When describing you to family and friends I have never, ever, not even once, been tempted to use the word "sedate."

Will be thinking of you this weekend.

I have learned the most from my struggles in life and it gives one perspective to appreciate the good. Hope you are healing fast and your family is doing well.

Hugs,
