A good friend of mine, BK, told me that I am almost reaching the peak and that the valley was the price of admission. I love that thought. In this journey, I always dread the valley, but I realize over and over again that I need the valley to get to the mountain top. I realize again and again that the valley, the bad stuff, is necessary for me to see myself in the good stuff, to realize what it takes to reach the top. I also learn that the greatest gift is not being on top; no growth happens there. The greatest gift is what I have to go through and, by implication, grow through to get to the top!!! Then, to do it again and again.
