Above and beyond the mountain climb,
Hope calls with encouragement to persevere.
Though it could be rough and dangerous,
Promise resonates over fear.
Imagine yourself up above like the sky,
Floating free with contentment and love.
Feeling courageously assured,
From hardships, you will rise above.
Shy not from the adventure that awaits you,
Meet it with an open heart.
Absorb the energy from all around,
Take a step forth for a new start
