is the.....!

its funny but at the moment i regard
ohio as a complete success
its a personal triumph
not in some CBT bullshit kinda way

as i age near 40
my thoughts on challenge
(e.g. solo climbing,)
have changed somewhat.

if i came off the mountain
or climb without 'success'
then i would have regarded it all as a complete failure.
But now, with time and experience
i can see that the act itself, of moving,
trying, being in the moment, pushing so much
is in itself a celebration of life and existence
away from the hum-drum mediocrity of the box.

in other words its all success as we
live instead of merely existing.
