Mountain




Lovely darling, I love how these pictures came out.


There's something very particularly thrilling and liberating about being in mountains, away from the city noise and life, going up higher, leaving things behind, enjoying the great fresh air.
I've fallen in love with the mountains here in Morelia. Right now everything is green, and months back tall pink wild flowers sprouted there and anywhere where man couldn't ruin them.
Taking hikes up the mountain gets me feeling so renewed and peaceful.
Like taking a soothing bath after a long, bad day and the water washes away the sticky, gross feelings. Things outside the bathtub are the same. When I come down the mountain, nothing has changed. Except for me. The world is still in its regular motion; the sun shines again every morning telling me that even if I feel I have no control over my life, there is Someone who does. And it's better if it stays that way, cause He's mighty good at it. He's the only one that can make things work right -also when it doesn't seem like it-, the One that makes the wind blow and the flowers grow.

Squint and you'll see Sandy and I talking away like never before, like always.





I don't know what I'd do without any trees in sight. I'm probably not made for the big cities where they chop everything down. We need good oxygen ppl. Love the trees!

"There is more light on the mountain. Long after the valley is in darkness, you can still see the sun. The valley is almost always dark—full of people and things, but usually in darkness. The mountain is windy and cold, but thrilling.

If you're going to climb a mountain, you have to have the feeling that it's worth dying for. Any mountain—the mountain of this life, the mountain of accomplishment, the mountain of obstacles, of difficulty—has to be worth braving wind and cold and storm, symbolic of adversities.

Only pioneers climb mountains—people who want to do something that few have ever done before, ­people who want to get above the multitude and go beyond what has already been accomplished. Pioneers must have vision—vision to see what no one else can see; faith—faith to believe things no one else believes; initiative—initiative to be the first one to try it; courage—the guts to see it through!" -David Brandt Berg

Adrian took this picture, wonderful no?
