Joy

Shawn, Matt, and I went hiking on Monday night.
We were soaked in the rain and surrounded by thick fog all the way to the top of the mountain. It was like a life's journey. As soon as we started hiking, it started to rain. We weren't prepared for it, so all of us were soaked in the rain. It was so dark on the trail because the moon was hiding. We almost gave up and went home, but we believed that the sky would clear. When we reached to the top of the mountain, we could only see six trees in front of us due to the thick fog!! We were freezing with wet clothes and shoes.

45 minutes passed on the top of the mountain. I screamed, "Sky, please clear." and prayed the sky would open up. Someone heard my prayer, and the sky cleared gradually and the lights of the cities showed up one after another among the clouds. It was a magical and exciting moment. It was like opening up a treasure box with jewels. We played Kan'Nal and  Tool on the top of a mountain with my i-pod. We could see a view of all the gorgeous stars, moon, mountains, Boulder, Denver, and other cities. We danced to the music and felt Gods and Goddesses around us. All I felt was deep joy. Beyond all the sadness and death on this earth, I know that we are always surrounded by beauty, love, and the constant creation of life and life force. I am alive and KNOW that everything including all the sadness and darkness are here to teach us love.

The spot has an incredible view and is truly an amazing place on Earth. We felt Hana and all animal friends were with us there. The place makes us feel joy, love, and thankfulness to the universe!!
