Climbing Mount Everest

I just had a friend become the second youngest Canadian to climb Mount Everest and it inspired me to write this. From ME to YOU:

The language of soul is one we all know yet we stumble with the words and phrases. We open our minds to all that is yet our hearts close in fear that we are wrong. To speak too soon, too act too quickly, to make the wrong move or take the wrong step is the fear each one of us has. Those who follow the legends of their destinies know this well. What is it that they are reaching for? Why do they risk so much? The Sherpas live peacefully and contently at the summit of all great mountains for they truly know the mountain's real secret. It is not real. Nothing is. All that is is not. Don't you see? See what the ancients have created for us to find our way back home. Home is where the heart is. Home is the heart. The climb up the mountain is the journey into your own soul. Into the beating, pulsing heart of your entire existence. It is you. It is. It is what it is the Lama said to the crying girl. "What is it really?" she asked as she wiped away her tears. The Lama took her face in his wise hands and whispered in her ear, "it is love." The memory of this moment will be with you forever beating consciousness alive and well kept safe in the wellness of your own sacred heart. Open your heart and the world is yours. You will find real Love. The kind of Love that has no boundaries, has no limits, has no expectations. She sat asking Source for this real Love. Her body trembled, she released a small gasp as her heart opened up to the infinite worlds of compassion, understanding, freedom and unconditional love. She fell over for a moment, trying to hold the energy in her tiny frame. It no longer matter if he returned to her. He was but a moment in time, a mirror to her own beauty, her own talent, her own passion and her own power. She remembered she was the Goddess in this Eternal Life.
