Climbing up a mountain is the last thing you want to do when you're afraid of falling but i jumped at the opportunity recently on a cruise ship in the Bahamas to Climb to the top of a rock climbing wall. The view was of the ocean. Absolutely magnificent but at the same time absolutely scary.... I however am determined to get over this fear and even the thought of being on the 12th floor of a cruise ship in the middle of the ocean close to the sky didn't deter me from doing it!
First things first. Just as in roller skating, one needs the right shoes for this to be successful. Funny thing is, the shoes for all the various events are not the most attractive ones. Hehe.... I'm a Shoe girl:)
Next you have to have the right gear.... So i got geared up....
I then stood there watching others race up the wall as i stood in line looking at this wall i had chosen to take on. A little terrified that the ship seemed to be moving a bit, probably just the water though. I was nervous and excited all at once as i stared at the great wall of LOIS :)
I was ready now to take on my wall.... Here is a clip of my victory....
I left the and stared at the sea below with a smile on my face..... I'm Learning that i can truly do anything if i Just put my mind to it!!!!
P.S. I Also just recently did a handstand for the first time against a wall..... Soon i wont be afraid of falling :)
Have a blessed day.
