OfflineA Little About Me
There are some who wonder - Why do people take such pains to go to faraway places and stand on top of a mountain...that too, for, at the max, half an hour?
To them, I would say - Take the pain, climb the mountain, see nature in its most basic form, and test yourself against it...and see how much you learn...about yourself...Go, Explore yourself !
As for me - Do I go up there to Die? NO - I go up there to LIVE !
