Thank you for your honesty. Another reason to make sure we don’t die on the way down is we have no idea what the next mountain is He wants us to climb.

Great reflection, John. I especially appreciated the turnaround analogy because my daughter and I are climbers. Climbing as a sport historically has been dominated by white people, but it’s changing. If you want to see fantastic pictures of Black people climbing mountains, you just need to know where to look! Look up (on IG or basic internet search) Kai Lightner, Meagan Martin, Mario Stanley (my daughter’s very first climbing coach), Dominique Barry, Climbing for Change, Brown Girls Climb, Memphis Rox Climbing, Kareemah Batts, Favia Dubyk. Ok, there’s enough there lead you down a lovely little rabbit trail!
