This is why

It can be hard to understand why we do what we do. I've never been truly able to explain why i love it so much, the blood and sweat and toil, that takes it from a sport to a way of life. Thankfully people like Jo Burt exist to shine a little light on our microcosm of society. This is why we are.

Accept no half measures.

"You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know." Rene Daumal

Passion knows no limitations, physical, mental or even the burden of emotional exhaustion. I guess we just have to be granted "the serenity to accept the things we cannot change and the energy to change the things we can."

A girl's gotta love her quotes. :) Keep on ridin.
