I climbed a mountain. This is something that I never thought I would do. I thought that I was going to go for a simple hike, but when I got mid-way, I knew that is was more that just a hike. I wanted to turn back so bad, three times to be exact. It was probably the scariest thing that I ever did. There were times that the path was narrow and all I could see was how far down the real world was. However, when I got to the top, with the help of Brenna and Meaghan, it was worth it. The view from Lion's Head, was absolutely GORGEOUS! I did not know where to look. On one side there was the beach, the other Table Mountain was facing us and on the other side was the city lit up. If I knew how the trail was before I went there, I don't think I would've gone. I am grateful for the experience, because it was something that I never would've done and probably will not do again.
I am hoping that this is just one of the experiences in South Africa that I have that will help me get out of my comfort zone. Getting out of my comfort zone does not necessarily mean that I have to climb a mountain, but put my places in situations that I normally would not. These situations that let us become a better person and taking on new perspectives. I cannot wait to see what else South Africa has to challenge me with!
