I felt some NERVES washing through me as I was a hundred feet above the forest line, doing beyond-vertical traverses across this cliff face. I had flashbacks of me when I was afraid of 10ft.
All the version of me that inched against my fear and had moments of relaxation to hang over the edges. To stay there long enough to console myself that I’m fine. I’m fine. I’m fine.
There was a shaky rung and my adrenaline snapped back into gear. I told myself.. I’m chill.. because I HAVE TO BE.😅
Nobody here to save me. Truly alone and trusting myself. There is an optimal space for stress to draw the greatness of us. This was sure one of them.
This adventure was 8$ of gear rental and a 1min safety vid.. I was wildly unprepared for how rowdy it was going to be. And so I have I heard for many others😆
When was a time you held on to a moment and knew that you made little-you proud?
