I call these "Summit Stones".....
After gathering these small rocks for many years, while out on adventures, I now splash a bit of paint on them, after 'Mixing In' very special elements with the colors. Then I give these stones back...
The musings here are simply about the wonders of adventure and inspiration. It's all about the importance of giving back and passing forward.....

"Gifts Within Adversity & Challenge..."
P. Stoltz & E. Weihenmayer said of these gifts: "May adversity become the pathway through which you flourish." S. Covey wrote also; "One key lesson is this: no challenge and adversity, no deeper sense of meaning and purpose."
"PEOPLE WHO SEEK ADVENTURE ARE TRUE POETS OF LIVING..." ANON
"Adventure does give you a chance to come to terms with yourself. What you find out about yourself just comes as a gift" D.Scott
"You went up that mountain one person, and have come down a very different being" Grandfather, Mountain Elder "By walking out alone into the wilderness... I can after a while begin to see and to hear and to think and in the end to feel with a new and exciting accuracy" C.Fletcher "Two voices are there; one is of the sea, one is of the mountains" Wordsworth "The narrow ribbon between land and ocean is a perfect place to understand the mind of wisdom" Deng Ming-dao
"There will be a day when you will climb to a place where the mountain and the sky merge" Grey Wolf
"IF YOU TAKE THAT STONE, YOU MUST GIVE SOMETHING BACK..." GREY WOLF
"The Latin word 'finis' has two meanings: the end or finish, and a goal to reach" V.Frankl
