I know some people feel like they are living in a deep, dark
valley. They feel trapped. Options are limited. The only paths seem to be
steep, uphill climbs. Everything around them appears to block out the light,
creating an ominous and intimidating environment. There are no easy answers or
level trails.
Now, some people get blindsided by life and find themselves
in a place like I described. Maybe it’s a sudden illness or a loss of a loved
one. But a lot of folks end up in a valley by choice. It’s years and years of
taking the downhill path. Taking the easy road. Refusing to climb uphill.
So, is it any wonder that if one takes downhill paths long
enough, they eventually end up trapped in a valley somewhere? The easy path
will dead end in time, and it typically dead-ends in a dark and depressing
place.
Choose the uphill journey. The climb is challenging, the
ascent can even be exhausting, but the freedom you will experience makes the
effort worth it. The views are much better too!
