Episode Description
The trail—like life—may not always be what we want it to be, but it offers us the opportunity to choose how we respond to whatever it doles out.
- In the hiking world we have a saying, "Embrace the Suck!"
- It's a reminder that the trail doesn't care what we want it to be and is not there simply to meet our expectations.
- But we always have a choice to accept what is and manage it with faith that things will eventually change for the better.
- A good mantra that emphasizes our power is, "Embrace the suck or it will embrace you!"
MUSIC: "Poema del Pastor Coya" by Angel Lasala as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano.
