Everest
|
On New Year's Eve we watched a program about a group of men attempting to climb Mount Everest. It was pretty stressful to watch, and made me confirm that I would never, ever want to climb Mount Everest, but the show got me thinking about something I've been ruminating on since...What's my personal Everest? I don't have a specific answer yet, but one thing has really stuck with me -- reaching the summit, the thing that it seems is the pinnacle, is really only the halfway point. You still have to make it back down, which according to the program's statistics, is where 80% of the accidents occur. Interesting.
