People aren't born strong. People grow stronger little by little, encountering difficult situations, learning not to run from them. - Christina Grimmie Just to give it a name I'd call it - solo trip, but trust me it was not. Because you might start solo but then you meet people on the journey and eventually they become your friends. You get to travel, spend time with them which eventually leads you to know about them as a person and most importantly you get to laugh and learn from them as you share experiences of your life. I had a fear of walking on snow as in childhood I got my leg fractured while learning ice skating. But as I saw people trekking up the mountain covered with snow, reaching the topmost point, that was the moment I couldn't stop myself and had to reach there. I started climbing upwards. And while I was, whenever I would look back down I would see the ones I was leaving behind and some of them wouldn't be so visible even. And after the continuous climb I realised I was on the top. Just not that, I even dared to slide myself down on that snowy mountain from top. And that feeling was one of the best feelings I've ever had in my life. Like in life while we keep growing, once in a while when we stop and reflect on past that how far we've come from where we started and feel of it is so empowering, yet so liberating. I felt that.
