Just keep going..

I have bad mornings just like everyone else. This morning is no different.

My youngest daughter woke up the sametime I did. I have to take care of her and get ready to go. Before I know it, it's time to run out the door to the mountain. A car takes dangerous left turn in front of me, luckily I slow down in time.  Sigh... "Just keep going"

Pull into the mountain reserve parking lot. Finally in weeks I find a fairly good parking spot. Then, while I'm getting my things together, a guy comes up and knocks on my window to see if my leaving. NEVER has someone done that to me before. Pretty gutsy person if you ask me. My hiking friends and I call these people the 'entitled', because they refuse to park faraway from the trail. I mean hello we are exercising here aren't we? I park faraway all the time, and I know there were plenty of parking spots left today. I told him no I'm not leaving. He left. Sigh ..."just keep going" I say to myself.

Get my waterpak on and my timer started, and headed to trail. There are bugs flying everywhere, and It's hot. All I can tell myself is
"just keep going".

After all that I reach the top of mountain, and say "I made it."

It is worth it to "just keep going" and never give up.
