Sometimes we are faced with obstacles
Sometimes they are like pebbles
Other times they are like mountains
Some people only have to walk over the pebbles
But others have a much higher climb

Sometimes our mountains are taller than they appear
We think our climb to the top will be effortless
We try to believe our mountain is only a pebble
We want to think that things will get easier 
But it isn’t always so simple

Sometimes we have mountains on the outside and the inside
Sometimes our mountains consume us
Sometimes we are so high up the mountain we can’t breathe
Sometimes we feel stuck at the top
But then we find a way down

Sometimes we find a stream that leads to the bottom
Sometimes there are bends in the stream’s path
Sometimes the current can drag us under
Sometimes the crisp air and cool water will keep us from going further
But then we finally reach the bottom; take a deep breath, and realize we could climb even the tallest mountains
