The Day I Stood on Top of the World
<p><em>I don’t know how to describe it but whenever I see this picture, an explosive mixture of feelings and memories erupts in my body. I get transported back in time and place. That photograph is just so much more than just me. On a rock. To me at least.</em></p>
<p>To some, the top of the world is something within their horizon. To others, Mount Everest is the top of the world. To me, that mountain isn’t just far enough out of my comfort zone but also out of my horizon.</p>
<p>It was a different mountain. A different moment. It wasn’t even the highest mountain I’ve ever climbed. But it was the surroundings that gave me the feeling of overlooking the earth. Not only the physical surroundings of standing at the top of a mountain but also mentally. I was at a place and time in my life where I don’t know if I’ll ever reach that level of happiness again.</p>
