An Attempt to Sum it All Up
The trip is over and the only thing I can think is that it will take me a long time before I can completely process this journey. The peaceful days of hiking, the stillness of the woods, and the fresh smells of the wilderness will always be calling me back into the mountains. I feel that I have learned a lot of lessons that will stick with me and give me the endurance to get through challenges I face in the future. After days and days of hiking with Dr. Bundy, 3 Stoves, and Renaissance, I’m sure that the friendships formed will last a lifetime. I have learned much of God’s faithfulness and was blessed to have grown so much over this trip. I have learned to be more disciplined and to stay in the Word daily (Psalm 119:105). The amazing views and the beautiful sections of woods I saw pointed to how glorious our God is to create such beauty. It will take me time to digest all that happened on the journey and I am afraid many of you will have to let me know you are tired of hearing my stories about the trail in the future. If any of you has the opportunity to hike this trail, I would strongly encourage you to do so as it was the most unique, spontaneous, and challenging adventures that I have ever had. I look forward to the days, months, and years that lie ahead to reflect on this odyssey. The end of this trek has left me craving for more and I believe will always lead me to ask, “What adventure is next?”
