{TREE CLIMBING!!!}<br />
BORED OF BEING AN ADULT?<br />
The first house I lived in had a beautiful<br />
sugar maple in the front yard. When I was<br />
about four years old with a little help and<br />
guidance from my dad, I climbed it for the<br />
first time. Though I only made it to standing<br />
on the second limb up, I felt like I was on<br />
top of the world. My parents still have the<br />
pictures taken that day, in one shot; a look<br />
of fear and uncertainty, in the next photo<br />
a look of overwhelming joy and ecstasy.<br />
I am sure many of you reading this have<br />
a similar story and many more thereafter<br />
of the happiness found as a child playing<br />
in trees. Adults are boring. I said it. It<br />
needed to be said; where is the sense of<br />
adventure, of wonder, of exploration that<br />
so dominated your existence as a child?<br />
It isn’t gone entirely. I promise it is just<br />
dormant. After all, adulthood is boring<br />
for a reason. We have bills to pay, mouths<br />
to feed, responsibilities, there is no room<br />
for fun. I want to change that. I want to<br />
encourage you to live boldly again and<br />
regain the freedom you had as a child. I<br />
want to do that through one of my favorites<br />
modalities of training, tree climbing.<br />
