The Climbing

"It was the most beautiful place under heaven or sky. Mountains and rock, trees, desert, and blue lake - all lay before him in exquisite detail. The air was so clear he felt he could see the end of the earth, the sky so deep blue, it seemed to merge into space. The view was entirely indescribable to those who were unwilling to pay the price, those unwilling to get out and make the steep mountain climb." "What was it, he wondered, that drove him to the summit? What was it that compelled him to climb the steep path, working his way up the dangerous trail? He couldn't answer the question; all he knew was that he felt it necessary to climb, to reach the highest point, to be on top of the world, to measure the distance, to see both sides of the mountain and the granite peaks all around. Being up there helped him, somehow, to understand the way things operated down below, reminding him that there was more to life than the daily grind."

Rest In Peace,My Friend----Colte Benson




Hey Friends,

On December 27th one of my good friends shot and killed himself. I have known him since I was 5 years old! He was a wonderful human being. He lived his life the way he wanted to and didn't care what others thought---which is something that not many people actually ever do in this life. He accepted EVERYONE for who they were! Colte was an AMAZING guitar player----I have often wished that I could play HALF as good as he could! He will be greatly missed but I am grateful that I was able to meet him during my time here on earth! I am also grateful for my sound knowledge in and of the gospel of Jesus Christ that helps us get through the tough times!


See you on the other side,


Ash
