Hiking

Hiking in the rain and snow reminds me of how temporary our life is. It really sucks when you're cold, wet feet, achy muscles, frozen fingers, gasping for air, but it's all temporary. After the hike, you hop in your car, turn up the heat, take a hot shower and enjoy a warm meal. The short term suffering sucks, but the long term affects are worth it. You're more healthy than when you started, and you appreciate all the little things that much more. =)
