Easy

Written by Jacob Ibrag

You want easy?

When was life ever easy? Before answering,

ask yourself how long easy usually lasts? Never

does, it’s the long walk up the mountain that

warrants any version of pride. The warm salty

sweat that forms and makes its way  across

your face, that’s what it’s all about. Because

when you finally reach Valhalla with broken

limbs and half a smile, you’ll stare down the

mountain and cry the tears that have kept

you alive. You will have earned this life.

Nothing worth dying for will ever be easy,

these words I promise.
