For those of you who have known me for a long time, I had always been an indoor person who thinks those mountain people who sleep on the rock and cook like barbarians are out of their minds. And I never understood those guys who risked their lives trying to conquer some top peaks. What’s for?
A few years ago when I was living in Toronto, I got all interested in rollerblading. I had never tried it but I went ahead and bought myself a pair of nice rollerblades. The next thing I knew, BANG! I fell on my butt and took me forever to get back on my feet. So the rollerblades went into the storage room and haven’t seen the daylight since…
I had my mind set that I was not good at any sports that require body balancing. And I will never give up my comfortable mattress to sleep in the wild… Oh… and rock climbing? Gee… I am afraid of the height.. so.. hell with that!
Today is June 27, 2005. I am 32 years old, I rock climb on 100 feet cliffs; I snowboard on blue; I hike and I camp. I see why these people are up there fighting the storms to climb to the peaks; I appreciate the nature like never before. Wow, what a change! All it took was just a little change of mind… to tell myself.. “Go ahead and try it… and don’t give it up so easily…”
I have been an engineer all my life and I only took 2 formal college level English classes in my entire life. I always told myself that the only thing I could write was technical manual and I don’t have the word “artistic” written in my DNA. Ever since I started writing for my friend’s blog, I surprised myself by seeing the creative side of me. Again, all it took was a little change of my mind.
What I’ve learned from living in Colorado and the people who have helped me in the past year is that the sky is the limit when it comes to what you can do and what you are good at.. You never know until you give it a try…
