That's what life does. It challenges us and we're supposed to over come those challenges, no matter what they entail, then grow from those experiences for the better.

I couldn't have said it any better. In summer 2015 I was completely down. Now looking back it feels amazingly good to know that I made it. There was a moment in time when I said: There will be only a light at the end of the tunnel if I start walking towards it. Then I stood up and just walked.

Now I'm living the life I've ever dreamt of. It's very important to NOT EVER GIVE UP.

Thanks for sharing your glorious summer with us! I enjoyed it immensely and learned much from you to boot! Bravo! ;)

Thank YOU for being part of it!!! The community inspired me to share all these adventures and to paddle into that direction (literally). So I really appreciate that :-)

Have a wonderful weekend, @stillwater!
