Better than not getting lost
Today I climbed a peak I had climbed many times before. I am very familiar with this mountain, with the windy paths, steep slopes and deep forests. However, there was one spot I had never been to that caught my eye.
So I followed it. And followed it. And followed it. Until I had gone too far. Until I had to turn around and retrace my steps because I was getting lost.
But I’m glad I went there. Now I know what it looks like. Now I know what to expect when I go there.
Now I have no regrets.
