Experience #AtoZChallenge

Our life is a sum of experiences…. Good, Bad, Adventure, Exciting, Happy, Sad, Amazing, Interesting, Enlightening… the list goes on…

I am not talking about the experience one has in a knowledge or skill but simply experience as a way of feeling..

I would like to share one of the many experiences of my life…

It was very cold a day, the weight of my backpack was sagging me. The climb up the mountain was exhausting. The rugged stones and boulders paved a path uphill. As I gasped for breath, my legs felt like lead. I didn’t want to sit, I had to keep going. There at the very end of the path, I had now reached the mountain slope.

There they were, snow-clad mountain ranges, standing majestic in all its glory. At an altitude of 12000 feet above sea level, I was surrounded by the Himalayas. My heart missed a beat, my eyes of my soul could see something beautiful beyond these mountains. It was something profound, I quite can’t put into words. That’s when I felt that, ‘ There is more to life, there are many things which I am unaware of or have no knowledge of.’ It was the day I was reborn!
