Dream big or go home

Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa, located in Tanzania, near the border of Kenya. At 19,340 ft, it is the easiest mountain to climb of the world's great mountains. I have dreamt of making the trek to the peak of Kilimanjaro for half my life. Today as I sit in my living room typing this, I am further away from Kilimanjaro than I have ever been, but my desire to be there is stronger than ever. I have always felt that if I could conquer Kilimanjaro, I could do anything.
But…
I’m unfit, unconfident, and in debt too much to save for a trek like this. It would be impossible. Wouldn’t it? I’ve heard a lot of talk about visualizing your dreams, setting goals and watching triumphantly as dreams come true before your eyes.
I’ve also heard that through Christ all things are possible.
I need to know that this is possible. By my own strength, by the power of Christ, by destiny, whatever. My life will feel incomplete somehow until this is done.

This is one of my missions. And I’m inviting you to watch me succeed or fail. I don’t know how long it will take me to succeed or admit failure. I’m not even sure where to begin. But I will test all of my limitations on this journey.

Dream big or go home, kids.
