The Hill We Climb

Reflecting on Amanda Gormans poem The Hill We Climb, it acknowledges that there are many challenges individually and collectively in these times and it brings the strong message of hope and courage. We are not asked to deny or in anyway make light of our challenges, instead, we are called to acknowledge them, release their holding, to balance them with hope and courage.

When we see only the challenges and the difficulty they represent in our lives, we blindside ourselves, blocking us from learning and healing. It is important to take time to explore and reflect how each challenge presents itself, what is the message or the pattern.

It is important too, to remember how we have navigated many challenges in the past. Take some time today to look at a recent challenge and how you have overcome it, how you define your own path of courage, hope and healing.
