Compare to our path of life

When we hike, we march our steps forward,
We fear not about the uncertain things that lay in front of us.
We do not know how to fear,
Although the distance is far,
The mountains are so high,
We will, somehow get there.
As we ascend, we made our self
As we descend, we feel the pain from our knees
We become impatient by detouring around in the woods
We swear at the fake hill tops
But somehow we still manage to get there
If there are dangerous landscapes, we tide ropes to ensure each other.
If there is a waterfall, we by-pass it.
If it rains, we put on raincoats.
If we can’t get there, we rest
Then move on.

In the mountains we seldom hesitate what is our concerns it that whether can we get to out destination on time

Most of the times we do not know what our destination is like but if we don’t march forward how would we know?

The only thing we know is that we would somehow arrive our destination as long as we march forward.

Mountain climbing

I started to fall in love with outdoor activities when I entered University. I’ve climbed several mountains during my freshman year at FJU. It all started when I was a little kid. I would watch adventurous novels and hoping that one day I can do the same. So as I entered University, the first thing I do is to join the Alpinist association. In the the association, I learned all kinds of skills of mountain climbing. Above all the most significant thing I learn from the alpinist association is the respect to Mother Nature. We learn not only to respect it but to protect it.
What I have to say that Mother Nature has a special ability. The ability to heal a human being form all sort of problems. It can clam yourself down. It was really a miraculous experience only when you experience it can you really understand it.

Traveling

I love to travel. There are many reasons for one to travel around, but my reason to travel around is very simple- I wanted to see things with my own eyes. Everything to me is a wonder created by the hand of God. So in the year 2008 I went biking around the whole island and it was worthwhile going around the whole island. I saw so many fantastic views. I have put them into stories in my MySpace. And besides riding bicycle I also climb some of the mountains in Taiwan during the year 2007.
After all the sight seeing I notice that traveling makes you learn things you wouldn’t learn in your normal life. I guess only through traveling can one notice the emotion inside it. I wish I can do more traveling.

DRIFT

Recently there is this feeling in my mind that I wanted to cast myself to drifter, and roam around the world. Sometimes too many things around you will make you feel sick of your life. I don’t know what most people think but for me I would want to go around for a while. When the opportunity comes will you take it and out cast yourself? Have you ever think of being a totally different person at a totally unfamiliar place, where you can stop being who you are, and be who you want. And where will you go? How long will outcast yourself? After drifting around would you come back? I bet everyone have asked themselves questions like these, it is in everyone’s heart that we wanted to travel around, but for too many times we too often compromise to reality. We always think too much before we take any action. Traveling is not that hard, just pick up your back and start walking.

No Place else like Home

There is no place else like home. Recently I have such a strong feeling about this line. I have always thought that being able to leave home and travel around to other places is such a wonderful thing to do. Without the nagging of my parents I will be able to do a lot of things. I will be able to go out with my friends and not have to beg for my parents for permission; I will be able to study, go to bed, watch TV and go shopping whenever I like. I will be the one who is telling me what to do not my parents.

But after one semester of playing and fooling around all I feel is the emptiness inside me, as if I was a soul with out a body. The more hard I play the more empty I felt in my heart. It seems that I have lost something significant in my heart. Last week I went home reluctantly because I was forced by my parents to do so. At first I felt so boring because I got nothing to do and the worst thing is that my friends were all not with me. But after having a simple breakfast with my parents I felt a sense of calmness in my heart as if the thing that I long lost was back again. Suddenly, I realized that “Home” has such an irreplaceable position in my heart. A simple breakfast with my family can be such a lovely and pleasant thing to do.

I am very lucky that I have a happy family, though I don’t have a wealthy family and I don’t have a large mansion to dwell in but I am still very grateful for what I have. The best part is that while it took most of my friends four or five hours to go home, it only took me one. I can’t wait for this weekend to come, for I am going home again.
