Autumn’s flame dances in my eyes

There’s tons of snowcones up here, but the only flavor is water…..

The first word that comes to mind after watching this video about climbing

Mt.
Everest is “brr.” I got cold just watching it! To climb
Mount Everest is an amazing feat, and anyone that would even attempt to climb it must have incredibly strong will power. I give them respect, because I know I would never be able to even walk ten steps up there. It takes amazing strength, will power, and your whole life really. I mean, everything you do and have done in the past is all behind you when you’re climbing that mountain. Once you take one step, once your pickaxe chips one piece of ice away, everything you are disappears. You aren’t going to be worrying about whether or not the mailman comes on time, whether or not you put the right amount of water in your coffee pot, or even what you are going to make for dinner. Once you start climbing, your world as you knew it is gone. To be able to let go of everything you know for months, maybe even years, is unimaginable. All I know is that I’m not going to be climbing

Mt.
Everest in my lifetime, but if you want to then I respect you.
