The Hardest Ascent Was Letting Go

Today I made a hard decision: after years of struggling and retrying, I’m leaving rock climbing behind.

Joint problems keep returning whenever I start again, and I can’t risk letting it affect my guitar playing. Climbing has been a longtime passion, but it can’t compare to music. Choosing between two passions wasn’t easy, but the decision is clear. So I let it go, with gratitude for all it gave me.

I’m not writing this to seek sympathy—just to share a chapter that closes today.
