"Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. To live only for some future goal is shallow. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you feel restless, speed up. If you feel winded, slow down. Then, when you are no longer thinking ahead, each step is not a means to an end but a unique experience in itself. It is the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here is where things grow."

It's kinda scary to think that we'll all be doing something different soon. I know I'm going to miss home so bad... But here it is, finally, our time to set out on our own is almost upon us. I feel like a child, watching the planes from the floor in front of the rocking chairs, in the waiting area of the airport: too excited to be really scared, too tense to express either.
